• Technical Annex: Integrating variable renewables into the UK electricity system

This Annex supports the Committee’s advice on setting a target to reach net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the UK by 2050.1 In that advice we set out scenarios, based on a ‘Further Ambition’ scenario, to show how the UK can reduce GHG emissions to net-zero across the economy by 2050.
