Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, how many green jobs have been created in the last 12 months; and what estimate he has made of the number of green jobs that will be available over the next 10 years.
The Department does not hold data on the number of green jobs created since July 2023. Over 80,000 green jobs are being supported or are in the pipeline across the UK economy as a result of new government policies and spending since November 2020. Government policy and ambitions will support up to 480,000 jobs in 2030.
