EP.125 The UK Government’s Net Zero Strategy: Chris Skidmore MP

This week on Energy Unplugged we have a special episode with focus on the UK Government’s Net Zero Strategy. Our Managing Director in UK & Ireland, Dan Monzani is delighted to be joined by Chris Skidmore MP. 

Chris is a senior Conservative MP and former Minister for Energy and Climate Change from 2018 to 2019 when he signed the UK’s Net Zero targets. Chris is the chair of the independent review of the UK's trajectory to Net Zero which was reported to the UK Government last Friday, the 13th January. 

Main topics include:

•The arguments for doubling down on Net Zero now when the voters’ main concerns are related to the cost of living
•Are gas-free homes by 2033 possible? How quickly we can get to a tipping point on heat pumps? 
•The funding commitments and the financial strategy for Net Zero
•Net Zero and the energy security crisis
