The path to net zero is incredibly complex. It will require smart thinking, collaboration, and open and honest sharing of credible insight that has been developed by the best minds from across academia and industry.
There is no silver bullet to meet the UK’s net zero ambition – it is truly a joint endeavour.
Our part in this journey is to be forensic in our research and share our findings on this page.
