About the session
Panel debate: "Will the low carbon transport transition be hamstrung by the energy system?”
The government has placed the low-carbon economy at the heart of the UK’s industrial strategy. This need to cut carbon is driven by the need to limit the potentially disastrous impacts of climate change, not only on our country, but globally. A key plank in this strategy is cutting the emissions coming from the transport sector, an area which up until recently has been a carbon laggard. However, attitudes are rapidly shifting gear, and green solutions are springing up and there are aims for ambitious adoption.
