The voter/government political consensus on climate is breaking. What does this mean for the energy transition?

Climate Consent: The new politics of net zero

  •  The UK government is preparing to fight a war in the coming years. The macro-drivers of UK policy are changing by the day. Seafloor warfare is already a key NATO battleground with the west adopting new postures and techniques.
  • The Starmer government, chastened by the Harris defeat and the rise of Reform, has changed its narrative and is defining new policies.
  • The USA’s turn inward, and the apparent failure to achieve its ambitious goal in Ukraine, adds another layer of challenge for the UK and the EU.
  • The uncertainties triggered by new US trade policies is rolling through the international economy like a fast-paced glacier.

Key Questions and Goals

  • How will ‘climate consent’ influence the energy transition?
  • What do the events of the last two years mean for the energy transition?
  • The deal – climate consent – between voter and politician is broken.
  • How will the Trump agenda influence geopolitics and the politics of the energy transition in the UK?
  • What does this mean for corporate affairs in the UK during this parliament?
  • How can the sector make its case as the headwinds increase and tailwinds slow?
