Clean Energy & Industrial Decarbonisation

The weather has its uses.

Turn Britain's energy transition into British industrial capability rather than imported equipment

The answer

Turn Britain's energy transition into British industrial capability rather than imported equipment.

  • Energy cost and availability now constrain compute, manufacturing and semiconductors.
  • Deployment without domestic supply chain exports the economic benefit.
  • Industrial decarbonisation decides whether energy-intensive industry stays.

Why BritainOne of the largest offshore wind markets in the world.Existing industrial clusters with carbon capture and hydrogen projects.Port, grid and heavy industry infrastructure already in place.

What Britain already has

Research base

  • Newcastle University
  • University of Nottingham
  • University of Sheffield
  • University of Strathclyde

Infrastructure recorded

  • Port and heavy assembly capacity
  • Grid connection and storage
  • Test and demonstration facilities
  • Pipeline and storage infrastructure

What Britain is genuinely good at

  • Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult, Blyth
  • Teesside and Humber industrial clusters
  • Hydrogen and carbon capture projects
  • Nuclear and fusion research programmes

What we’re less certain about

  • Grid connection queues
  • Project finance for first-of-a-kind assets
  • Planning and consenting timelines

These are open questions UKIZ holds against this campus, not weaknesses we have proven.

The digital campus

Clean Energy & Industrial Decarbonisation in Britain, as it stands today.

Britain leads in offshore wind deployment and lags in the manufacture of what it deploys. The mission is supply chain, industrial decarbonisation and the technologies around them.

Every line below is a record with a date. Where UKIZ holds nothing, it says so rather than filling the space.

Sources and freshness

Every line above carries where it came from.

Records come from published sources: filings, university and Catapult pages, government announcements and organisation-supplied information, each marked as such. Inferred facts are labelled inferred.
