This discussion considers:
- Are the main parties' decarbonisation goals realistic and achievable?
- Can decarbonisation goals be made more compelling to voters who are concerned that they will have a negative impact on costs of energy and energy security; and what steps are needed to achieve this?
- Where do significant policy gaps lie and what are the priorities for action?
- Recommendations for parties’ manifestos to accelerate a just transition to net-zero.
With thanks to BIEE and Edinburgh University's Business School for allowing us to record and share the discussion.
