Theres an interview with Emma Pinchbeck is the Chief Executive of Energy UK, a position that she has held since July 2020. She is an expert in whole-economy decarbonisation and the energy transition Its on a podcast called 'The News Agents' episode from the 24th starting at 18 minutes in ish talking about the economics of a green industrial strategy the whole piece starts at 16 minutes in ish having a pop at the 2 parties. Found it really interesting as she was looking at it as an enormous economic opportunity

Starmer can't go at any pace he's not in power. Listened to a podcast that interviewed a leading industrialist representative on the topic and the private funding and tech are here at the momment her fear was noises coming from the government would drive it all to the US and EU Her view is this isnt going green its a technical and economic revolution first ones there will reap the rewards

@oneoflokis EV and battery tech are on what's called the S curve you have to remember that this started over 10 years ago. In the same way that governments across the globe put money into vaccine research the US EU and China are in a veritable arms race Investment in renewables in the US 1.75 trillion in the EU projected 800 billion in the UK ?? The latest news on affordability is the production of Sodium Ion batteries by CATL production started in Feb and its 20%+ cheaper than current lithium based could go to 40% cheaper
