Recommendation 18

The Government may not always be able to adhere to its technology agnostic policy as it seeks to achieve the target of net zero emissions by 2050. If that aspiration is to be fulfilled, it must introduce policies that enable a functioning market which encourages alternative fuel uptake. That will sometimes mean ‘picking winners’. A technology agnostic approach from the Government should not be used as an excuse for doing nothing to lead. (Paragraph 131) 46 Fuelling the future: motive power and connectivity
