Policy overview - UK The UK committed to achieving net-zero by 2050 in June 2019, and recently went a step further by increasing its emissions reduction target from 68% by 2035 (compared to 1990) to 78%. The Government's 'Ten Point Plan for a Green Industrial Revolution' (Ten Point Plan) (November 2020) sets out a framework for achieving net-zero, with hydrogen identified as a prominent contributor in achieving net-zero. This set a target of 5GW of low-carbon hydrogen production capacity by 2030. The 5GW production target has been set assuming a mix of blue and green hydrogen, a key difference from other European markets. This will be supported by the £1 billion Net Zero
