CATFs Statement on UK Green Recovery Plan

The Clean Air Task Force (CATF) supports the UK government's Green Recovery plan for its focus on carbon capture and storage (CCS) and low carbon hydrogen as essential for net-zero goals. The plan allocates £1bn total to CCS and £500M to low carbon hydrogen, targeting industrial clusters such as Teesside and Humber. While endorsing the 'all of the above' approach and the development of zero carbon liquid fuels, CATF emphasizes that the UK must immediately reduce methane emissions from natural gas to effectively mitigate warming.

• The UK government's 10-point Green Recovery plan allocates a total of £1bn to carbon capture and storage and £500M to low carbon hydrogen to support net-zero goals.
• The plan targets the decarbonization of the power, industry, and transport sectors through funding for industrial clusters, with potential sites including Teesside, Humber, Port Talbot, Merseyside, and Mansfield.
