Facts and Figures

  • The UK Climate Change Act 2008 includes legally binding targets for the UK to reduce its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by at least 80% by 2050. Internationally Kyoto Protocol has imposed similar conditions on signatory states. Methods of energy generation, sources of energy consumption, amount of energy demand and how it is delivered are understood to have a strong bearing on GHG emissions.
  • Worldwide more efficient conventional power plants (including carbon capture and storage), nuclear, non-conventional fossils and renewables are being considered as viable generation alternatives. Private and public sectors are gearing up to meet this challenge - new cleaner conventional power plants are being implemented and renewables are being aggressively promoted through favourable policies, such as Feed in Tariff (FiT) and Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) schemes in the UK.
  • Similar incentive schemes are being run in Spain, Germany, USA, India, Brazil and China among many other nations. Developing countries in
