The UK’s draft National Energy and Climate Plan sets out our
integrated climate and energy objectives, targets, policies and
measures. This has been superseded by the Energy white paper.

Details
Under the Clean Energy Package negotiated in 2018, EU member
states were required to produce a National Energy and Climate
Plan (NECP).
In line with the terms of the Withdrawal Agreement, the UK has
submitted and published its final NECP. However, as we
are not a member state, our performance in the areas of energy
and climate change no longer contributes towards EU targets.
The content in the NECP is wholly accurate
up to 31 January 2020, the date the UK left the EU. However,
policy announcements and publications after this date have not
been incorporated, and the NECP does not supersede
these announcements. The impacts of coronavirus (COVID-19) are also not taken into account.
See the Energy white paper and
the Prime Minister’s Ten point plan for a green
industrial revolution, which set out how the UK will clean up
its energy system to reach net zero emissions by 2050.
