Recommendation 4
4
Paragraph: 42
Set out investment opportunities for fitting low-carbon energy on defence estates by 2030.
Recommendation
The Ministry of Defence should set out the balance of investment opportunities around accelerating the fitting of low-carbon energy sources to the defence estate in the UK and abroad to achieve ‘estate net zero’ by 2030. Although this will require additional initial capital outlay, it should reduce whole-life costs and carbon emissions and increase Defence’s energy resilience and self-sufficiency.
