While meeting peak grid power demand in 2050 with CCS and hydrogen requires roughly £40bn in capital expenditure, it estimates that this would be significantly less than the estimated £170bn price tag from scaling alternative technologies to ensure firm and flexible power such as nuclear, pumped storage or lithium-ion batteries.

Moreover, this price tag is for capital investments, not costs. The transition to a net zero economy will entail a period of higher investment (reaching a peak of about $4tr around 2040-45 and declining thereafter), offset by increasing savings from reduced operating costs, primarily arising from reduced fossil fuel use," the report explains.

New technologies like heat pumps and solar panels that can save energy, lower utility bills, and prevent greenhouse gas emissions often come with a hefty price tag initially. Both programs are funded through the Inflation Reduction Act. The $100 million will go toward making 1,500 homes “zero energy” through loan and grant awards.
