Have you taken advantage of your unrestricted access to New Energy World‘s featured articles this month? 🤔 Our most recent feature gives an insight into the UK Chancellor of the Exchequer's Spring Budget, and how it could have been written by Robin Hood. With one hand, it takes from industry (£1.5bn) by extending the 75% windfall tax on North Sea oil and gas profits by a year. With the other hand, it gives to voters, in the form of a 2p cut in National Insurance. Although more than £500mn of support for clean energy and the green tech supply chain were mentioned, the focus on popular measures is a reminder that a General Election is looming and more substantial longer-term decisions on the energy transition may need to wait for beyond the autumn, whatever the outcome. ➡️Explore these topics with your open access for another 14 days: https://ow.ly/QIyQ50QVmZ2

If I could write to the Prime Minister of the UK with a reasonable prospect of it being read, the content would be as follows: "Dear Prime Minister, Let’s talk about competing interests and set the discussion against a macro backdrop of rapidly evolving volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity. Is it time to decouple ‘Net Zero’ from ‘Energy Security’? I do not envy you, your task in managing Government which comprises Departments, Agencies and Public Bodies. Under your office in 10 Downing Street there are 24 Ministerial Departments, 20 Non-Ministerial Departments, 427 Agencies and Other Public Bodies, 113 High Profile Groups, 19 Public Corporations and 3 Devolved Administrations. The Department for Energy Security & Net Zero is buried deeply within this mix and itself works with 16 Agencies and Public Bodies, including the newly formed, publicly owned, clean energy company, Great British Energy. Messrs Miliband and Maier have their work cut out trying to align with Government policy whilst simultaneously fighting for air-time within the massively complex and competitive Government structure as well as the current crop of home based energy producers (Real GB Energy). That’s not even including the citizens of the UK who see the spectre of rising energy prices along with increasing uncertainty of supply. If we apply an ALARP approach and define Energy Security in terms of minimising the reliance on third parties (external to the UK) to as low as reasonably practicable then it follows that ‘Net Zero’ deserves its own focus. I also suggest, perhaps counter intuitively, that such a de-coupling could open the doors to effective rather than mandated collaboration by and between all stakeholders. Food for thought? Yours faithfully,"
