New study calculates that meeting sectoral climate targets out to 2037 could result in at least 164bn worth of benefits in six UK urban centres.
It assesses policies that would allow the UK to meet “ sixth carbon budget” targets for transport and buildings.
Lower costs of running clean technologies and cutting reliance on fossil fuels will likely save money.
New study assesses the financial and carbon benefits of investing in low-carbon homes and transport.
The study concludes that 142bn or 79% of the total benefits are “social” The study uses “best-practice UK government methods” to assess the benefits of these policies.
This is despite the CCC estimate that nearly two-thirds of the emissions cuts required to meet the UK ’s net-zero target will depend on individual choices and behaviours.
Bob Ward , policy and communications director at the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment, says co-benefits should not be viewed as merely coincidental” by-products of climate policy.
