The opportunity for the Humber to become a blueprint for whole-region decarbonisation has been discussed at a roundtable featuring UK net zero champion Chris Skidmore MP.
The former Energy Minister, responsible for signing the UK’s net zero commitment into law, visited the UK’s most carbon intensive area to hear about the progress being made to transition industry. The discussion focused on the opportunities and challenges facing the Humber region, its businesses and its people.
It highlighted the importance of focusing on whole-region decarbonisation, supporting small and medium-sized businesses on their net zero journey and ensuring the Humber has the skilled workforce and talent to achieve ambitious government-led targets.
