How will energy look in 2035?
By 2035 we envisage a very different world. We can expect a much more diverse range of heating sources, with significantly lower emissions, and where all new vehicles are low carbon. The energy system of the future will be more decentralised, disaggregated and multi-vector, where for each of our needs there will not be just one solution, but many.

ETI report highlights importance of CCUS deployment
‘Still in the mix? Understanding the role of Carbon Capture Usage and Storage’, was written by the Energy Systems Catapult (ESC) for the ETI, and takes into account recent cost reductions in renewables and the latest ETI modelling on CCUS costs. The report reaffirms previous ETI work on the importance of CCUS deployment by 2030, without which carbon abatement costs will increase by circa £1 billion a year. The research also cements ETI analysis that if CCUS is not developed at all before 2050, the ‘national bill’ for low carbon energy that year would be circa £35bn higher – equivalent to circa 1% of expected GDP.

ENA invites feedback on gas innovation strategy
The Strategy sets out the challenges and the opportunities facing the gas transmission and distribution networks as the UK looks to decarbonise its energy system to meet climate change targets. It looks at the role that existing gas infrastructure can play in meeting demand for power, heat and transport in a low carbon economy. The Strategy seeks views from technology providers on how they would like to see gas network companies play a role in delivering greater energy innovation in the future.
