Details

The energy and emissions projections publication provides projections of energy, emissions and electricity generation under policies that have been implemented and those that are planned where the level of funding has been agreed and the design of the policy is near final.

The report and annexes contain projections of UK greenhouse gas emissions, energy demand and electricity generation. They include projections of the demand for each type of fuel in different sectors of the economy.

Please send any enquiries about the projections to: emissionsprojections@energysecurity.gov.uk.

For questions on the assumptions behind the projections, please see Annex M for source information.

We are unable to provide any breakdown of projected renewable electricity generation, capacity or new build by technology.
