Options, Choices, Actions: UK scenarios for a low carbon energy system transition

This resource links to a document we hold in our system

Abstract:

The UK energy environment comprises a complex set of needs, technologies and choices. ETI first conceived ESME for our own technology investment purposes, but over the years it has developed into a powerful energy system model for the UK.

The refinement and development of the model with input from our private and public sector membership has allowed us to develop illustrative scenarios for the UK’s energy transition out to 2050.

We present here two representative scenarios of the future which each show pathways the UK can follow, but importantly highlight the changes the UK needs to consider and make to its energy infrastructure – this is unavoidable.
