Support for innovation to deliver net zero

This report examines whether the government is set up to deliver value for money from its approach to investment in research and innovation to deliver net zero in the UK. In doing so, and in keeping with our statutory remit, the report does not question the merits of the government’s policy objectives or challenge areas set out in the Framework. The report examines:

  • the effectiveness of mechanisms in place for providing leadership and coordination of net zero research and innovation activities
  • arrangements for delivering net zero research and innovation support and whether this is aligned with the challenge areas set out in the Framework
  • plans for reviewing progress and evaluating impact against the desired outputs and outcomes
