Energy and emissions projections 2024 to 2050

Summary

The UK Department for Energy Security & Net Zero publishes annual projections of energy demand and greenhouse gas emissions to assess progress towards its legally binding carbon budgets up to 2050. These projections, based on implemented and near-final planned policies ("EEP-ready"), serve as a baseline for future climate policy evaluation. The latest report indicates that, with current policies, the UK is projected to meet Carbon Budgets 4 and 5, and shows improved prospects for Carbon Budget 6, reflecting ongoing efforts in emission reduction.
