The REA’s new report reveals that although progress in decarbonisation has been made, reduced support schemes and a lack of policy have slowed progress

It stressed the importance clean hydrogen will have in decarbonising important sectors, slashing GHG emissions and delivering net zero

The REA predicts that the UK will need at least 30GW of long-duration energy storage technologies by 2050, which is currently not possible with the present market and regulations

The report has set some key aims and targets to speed-up the net zero push in the coming decades, including more than 50% of electricity generation coming from renewables by the end of 2022
