Local energy plans must be funded to ensure a just transition

Local energy plans must be funded to ensure a just transition

The energy transition risks becoming a postcode lottery unless all councils are supported to deliver a local area energy plan (LAEP). These blueprints for net zero at a grassroot level are critical to ensuring the right pathway is identified for each area. However, the cost and wider resource pressures of producing a LAEP are significant barrier to many. That is why Utility Week has launched a campaign calling for government to mandate and fund LAEPs across the country.
