Ahead of the crucial climate summit @COP26 in Glasgow, next week we're expecting the UK government to publish:

💼The Net Zero Strategy
🏦The Net Zero Review
🏘️Heat and Buildings Strategy

We've set out four tests for next week's announcements in this thread 🧵
Test 1⃣

A credible #NetZeroStrategy is a plan for how the UK will deliver on its National Determined Contribution & be an example for others ahead of #COP26🌏

It must outline expected emissions savings from each sector & provide a robust plan for the government to work towards
Test 2⃣

The strategies must set out the actual policies that will help us get to #NetZero & cut emissions

🗯️News that 30 #communityenergy projects, totalling 4GW of capacity, have failed because FiT cap has been reached, just days before it is due to end for good, calls for a recap on why gov needs to recognise the role of local, community owned energy.

Here are 5 reasons (thread):
1. Renewables are now the cheapest source of energy.
Falling costs + greater awareness of #climatechange will contribute to rapid adoption of distributed energy tech across public institutions, businesses and, increasingly, among households 2/
According to a recent study, 11 mn households could be producing or storing their own energy in the UK by 2030, compared to just over a mn today.

& @beisgovuk expects nearly 30GW of renewables and storage to be built by 2030: bit.ly/2WlOHDK 3/

We have positive news today: reinventing house retrofits could cut UK head demand by 40% 🌍🏠 Our very exciting report on the Dutch ‘#energiesprong’ (energy leap) approach is out today. Read it here or follow this twitter thread for its main findings: bit.ly/2WGnbSt 1/12
The UK has some of the least heat efficient housing stock in Europe. In 2017-18, there were an estimated 50,000 excess winter deaths, a figure not seen in over four decades. Heating our homes, inefficiently or otherwise, is also a major source of carbon emissions. 2/12
With over 60% of loft and cavity walls insulated, cheap solutions to #energyefficiency are running out. Current schemes are 3x more expensive than older versions and will at best reduce building emissions by 53%, well below the 80-100% we will require towards 2050. 3/12
