Meanwhile Reform want to scrap any Net Zero commitments.
The party's position on energy and net zero contrasts starkly with that of the Labour government, which wants to remove nearly all fossil fuels from UK electricity production by 2030. Labour is expanding renewable energy and said in its election manifesto it would invest £8.3bn in Great British Energy, a state-owned clean energy company, over five years. Governments worldwide are investing in renewables to meet international climate targets and lower carbon emissions to "net zero" by 2050. Electricity is increasingly generated from renewable energy in the UK, and the cost of renewable generation has significantly fallen in the past decade. Labour promised to bring down household energy bills by "up to £300 by 2030" - and Energy Secretary Ed Miliband has stood by the pledge. But UK energy bills went up in January, and are expected to rise again in April. The main reason for high energy prices in the UK has been an increase in the price of gas, which has been the largest source of fuel for years. With energy costs on the up, and President Donald Trump promising to drill for more fossil fuels in the US, Reform UK has turned its focus on the cost of renewables.
