Suzanne Plunkett/PA Wire Tony Blair’s think tank has called for the government to ditch its 2030 clean power target as it urged the Labour government to focus on making electricity cheaper in order to persuade Brits to use it over gas. In a report published by the Tony Blair Institute (TBI), researchers called for the government to “solve” problems including the decline of North Sea oil production, which had made the UK less secure. It is the latest indication that Blair has split from Keir Starmer’s government on key issues after the former Prime Minister publicly backed a cut to the top rate of income tax of 40 per cent. Central to its net zero policy, the Labour government wants to remove almost all fossil fuels from the UK’s electricity supply by 2030. But the fresh report argues that a focus on making bills cheaper would help to cut emissions and grow the UK economy.\n\nIt also states that a shift in focus would help accelerate electrification across households and industry, which it said was “essential” for decarbonisation.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNews Updates\nStay ahead with our three daily briefings delivering all the key market moves, top business and political stories, and incisive analysis straight to your inbox.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“The UK’s current energy strategy risks getting the balance wrong,” energy researcher Tone Langengen said. “If the transition continues in a way that raises costs, weakens reliability and undermines growth, it will fail both politically and practically. “That failure would erode public support at home, damage Britain’s credibility abroad and hand momentum to opponents of climate action.”\n\nThe TBI also emphasised that the UK required “mass electrification” and that net zero goals were aligned with a greater focus on considering how lower energy costs could improve the UK’s competitiveness. A Number 10 spokesman said the government remained committed to its 2030 clean power target.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"}}}
