Policy paper: The ten point plan for a green industrial revolution

[AngelaE]

The ten point plan sets out the approach government will take to build back better, support green jobs, and accelerate our path to net zero.

As the world looks to recover from the impact of coronavirus on our lives, livelihoods and economies, we have the chance to build back better: to invest in making the UK a global leader in green technologies.

The plan focuses on increasing ambition in the following areas:

• advancing offshore wind

• driving the growth of low carbon hydrogen

• delivering new and advanced nuclear power

• accelerating the shift to zero emission vehicles

• green public transport, cycling and walking

• ‘jet zero’ and green ships

• greener buildings

• investing in carbon capture, usage and storage

• protecting our natural environment

• green finance and innovation

The ten point plan will mobilise £12 billion of government investment, and potentially 3 times as much from the private sector, to create and support up to 250,000 green jobs.
