Net Zero 101

The Energy White Paper

The government has launched its long-awaited Energy White Paper to clean up the nation’s energy systems and ensure the journey to net zero by 2050 is achievable and affordable – but what does it actually say?

Greenhouse gases

This is what it’s all about. Cutting down greenhouse gases but are they all bad?

Net Zero

We’re all on the pathway to net zero by 2050 but what is it? What does it mean and how is it defined?

Carbon-neutrality

So many organisations boast they are carbon-neutral or can be so very soon. How is it possible and what does this entail?

Offsetting

Let’s all offset our emissions! To what and how?

Paris Agreement

Trump pulled the USA out of it. Biden is going back in. But what happened in Paris and what was agreed?

Scope 1, 2, 3

Organisations and companies are always talking about cutting their scope 1,2,3 emissions but there are actually more than three!

UNFCCC

Who or what is the UNFCCC and why is it so important in the global picture?

SDGs

You have seen people wearing badges that show the colours of the SDGs but who came up with them and do you know how many there are?

Science-based targets

Another catchphrase – ‘we’re setting science-based targets as a business’ – but what science and which target?

Energy storage

If we are to transition to a renewable future we will need to stop intermittent supply so how do we store our green energy to use it for another day?
