Steering Scotland’s pathway to net zero
Published:
Roadmap to world-leading climate change targets published.
More than 100 new policies and proposals to support Scotland’s green recovery and help deliver a just transition to net zero have been launched.
They form part of the Climate Change Plan 2018 – 2032, which has been updated to reflect the world’s most ambitious framework of climate targets as enshrined in Scotland’s Climate Change Act 2019.
The Plan, which also increases the ambition of more than 40 other policies to cut greenhouse gas emissions across all sectors, includes:
the launch of a £180 million Emerging Energy Technologies Fund (EETF), that, over the next 5 years, will support the development of Scottish hydrogen and Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) industries, and support the development of Negative Emissions Technologies (NETs)
