Recommendation 3

We recommend that the Government, together with Ofgem and the National Energy System Operator, establish a multidisciplinary planning cell tasked with the development of a detailed pathway to the decarbonised grid. This unit ought to be commissioned to produce a delivery plan that sets out the necessary investment and rollout of electricity infrastructure required to deliver the Government’s current ambitions for low carbon electricity generation. The cell should be established as soon as possible, with a view to producing initial pathways and plans by the end of 2024 at the latest.
