Today's progress report publication by the @theCCCuk outlines a severe lack of progress by the @GOVUK on #netzero targets/programmes, with 'holes that must be plugged in the strategy urgently' (Chairman, @lorddeben)>> thread...
Today, we publish our latest assessment of UK progress in reducing emissions. Emissions rose 4% in 2021 - now is the time to move from ambition to the delivery of promised action to tackle #climatechange. Read our new report: bit.ly/3uaaxgT

A report researched and funded by the @CLAtweets has been published recently expressing the views of the @ruralpowerhouse after an inquiry into the UK’s rural economy, its current status and how best to #levelup’. @JulianSturdy

As quoted in @Telegraph, @TeamUKPC's full statement re: Russia/Ukraine crisis, global wood pellet supply chains and the very real opportunity the @GOVUK has now to better support, strengthen and heavily invest in a home-grown wood pellet production market. biomassheatworks.co.uk/blog

“This is a hugely significant, positive announcement by the @GOVUK at @COP26 and one that clearly defines the key role #biomass will play in future #netzero and heat decarbonisation policy.” Read our statement regarding the Biomass Policy here>>>

“Don’t keep ignoring and excluding #rural off-grid communities in heat decarbonisation plans....” that’s our urgent call to @GOVUK following release of the Heat & Buildings Strategy. Read our full statement here: biomassheatworks.co.uk/blog

.@TeamUKPC and the UK biomass heat industry look forward to working with you to discuss and help shape a dedicated rural off-grid heat decarbonisation policy, very much needed for thousands of homeowners and #rural constituents #COP26 #netzero.
Trade was a great role, but so is Minister of State at the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy.
Energy, clean growth and climate change - some of the biggest challenges and opportunities for the Government as we approach #COP26. gov.uk/government/news/minis…

Solid #biomass fuels (wood pellets/woodchips) result in a 65-100+% reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in comparison to fossil heating oil, a new study finds. Read @BioenergyIntl >>>

One day to go for the UK biomass heat industry (and those associated with it) to submit responses to the @GOVUK @beisgovuk open consultation; 'The role of biomass in achieving net zero: call for evidence'. Go to gov.uk/government/consultati…
Closes 15 June 2021 #biomassheatworks
Please share and get behind the call for evidence>>>
#biomassheatworks
We're urging the UKs #biomassheat industry to get involved and demonstrate that #biomass is key to future #netzero policy. It must be funded to help homes/#rural buildings switch to #renewableenergy. @GOVUK releases its biomass strategy call for evidence>> biomassheatworks.co.uk/blog

News that @GOVUK has included #biomass in Phase Two of its Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme has been welcomed by industry representatives. Read more here>>> biomassheatworks.co.uk/blog

Biomass technology is already here #biomassworks - Heat pumps part of the solution but unsuitable in 25% of buildings - biomass obvious answer for older buildings and rural properties. #ClimateAction #renewableenergy #woodlets #ukpelletcouncil @TeamUKPC
UK Pellet Council retweeted
When well managed, #biomass (a waste/residue product) plays a proactive role in sustainable #forestry management. Therefore, it's vital that the UK’s #biomassheat industry is fully understood as part of a low carbon circular economy. Here's few key points> biomassheatworks.co.uk/blog

Welcoming the drive towards #netzero and supporting a heat decarbonisation policy that embraces a mix of technologies incl. #biomass which offers consumer choice and allows 'niche' areas (eg #rural off-grid, older buildings) to reduce carbon emissions using best suited solutions
The Sixth Carbon Budget (2033-2037) charts the decisive move to zero carbon for the UK. The CCC shows that polluting emissions must fall by almost 80% by 2035, compared to 1990 levels – a big step-up in ambition. (1/12) #UKCarbonBudget 🧵
“Don’t forget our rural areas...” @NeilHni of @TeamUKPC looks at how debate surrounding future heat decarbonisation policy continues to overlook the UK's #rural #farming and off-grid communities. See biomassheatworks.co.uk/blog

Welcome news... The @CommonsEAC is to hold a one-off evidence session on heat pumps, which comes a week after @GOVUK announced ambitions for 600,000 to be installed every year by 2028... See>>>

Rural/off-grid #homes are often the biggest carbon heat polluters due to old oil/coal boilers. They need an easy switch to renewables but poor network connections rule out most technologies other than #biomass. £100m will fund 25,000 ASHP installations meaning the UK needs:
