The 2023 Powering Up Britain plans brought energy security and net zero together
• We published the Powering Up Britain plans in March 2023.
• Energy security and net zero are two sides of the same coin – we can secure reliable energy supplies whilst cutting carbon and reducing prices.
• Putin’s illegal war destabilised global energy markets and led to an energy crisis. (Figure 1).

• The Government provided unprecedented support to consumers and firms (Figure 2).
• To meet Britain’s future energy needs, and bring down prices, we set out a plan to diversify, decarbonise and domesticate energy production.
