The latest edition of National Grid ESO's Future Energy Scenarios (FES) 2021 predicts there are a number of ways that power generation in Britain could become emissions net negative by 2034 helping to put the UK on track to become a net zero emission economy by mid-century. Both of these scenarios would meet the UK's Sixth Carbon Budget.
