According to a report by CBI Economics, commissioned by the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit, the UK's green economy is now worth more than £100 billion annually, with over 1.1 million jobs supported across various sectors, including renewable energy and electric vehicles. The research highlights that net zero workers earn an average salary of £43,000, exceeding the national average by 11%. The report also notes a potential £455 billion in investment for energy infrastructure, driven by the government's decarbonisation goals. Critics, including former Prime Minister Tony Blair and right-wing parties, propose scrapping net zero targets, which could adversely affect the economy. Experts argue that the green economy is essential for the UK's future competitiveness and energy security, generating nearly £120,000 in value per worker, significantly higher than the national average. The report emphasizes the need for continued support of net zero initiatives to capitalize on the economic opportunities they present.
