Where will the UK energy system be in 2050?
Are we on a trajectory to deliver all aspects of UK government energy policy, i.e. an affordable, secure energy system delivering an 80% reduction in GHG emissions?

The UK energy challenge... Demand is growing, assets are aging, prices are rising... irrespective of a CO2 reduction target
• 62m people ....................................................... growing to 77m by 2050
• 24m cars .......................................................... growing to 40m by 2050
• 24m domestic dwellings .................................... 80% will still be in use in 2050total dwellings 38m by 2050
• Final users spent £124bn on energy in 2010 .... 9% of GDP
• 2.4m English households in fuel poverty .......... average ‘fuel poverty gap’ £438 and increasing
• Over 90GW generation capacity ....................... from 1MW to 3.9GW
• Over 200 ‘significant’ power stations ................. average age >20 years
• 50% of power generation capacity …………….. in 30 power plantsaverage age 30 years

“No emissions targets” and “-80% CO2 in 2050” are very different worlds…

Key decisions and cost implications• Direction change between “no
targets” and “-80% CO2” polarises in mid 2020s
Delay in launch of major build programmes beyond mid 2020s leads to cost increases of ~£5bn p.a. as more costly alternatives are built• Key electricity decisions are national
policy led programmes – Nuclear new build– CCS
• plus… local and individual consumer decisions on other critical areas - with major implications for distribution level infrastructure – Heat delivery
(gas, electricity, biomass, district heating)
– Transport(liquid fuels, electricity, hydrogen)
There are logical asset replacements (technically and financially) that ensure security, sustainability and lowest system cost

What we need...
• Understanding of the drivers on future development
– Costs
– Supply capability and capacity (in a global market)
– Infrastructure decisions
– Investor requirements
– Consumer needs/desires
• Clear market and value opportunities for investors and consumers
• Supportive and stable policy
• Consumer support
But... the future remains uncertain and we need an energy system design that allows for this
• Ready to make informed choices• A system that creates and retains
optionality• Prepared for investment in a wide
scale infrastructure roll-out• Innovate to drive down cost
(technology and business models)
• We need innovative incentives for industry to invest in the UK
