Paragraph: 14
The UK is currently a net importer of gas for heating and power.
Conclusion
The UK is currently a net importer of gas for heating and power. With storage, it can develop sufficient offshore renewable generation to be more energy self-sufficient and better insulated from future global shocks. The UK could export its hydrogen and sell its energy storage capacity and expertise internationally if it develops a leading position.
