A Net Zero Week webinar from ADBA
The Role of Green Gas in Net Zero
7 July 2025 – 14.00-15.30 BST
The cost of meeting Britain’s net zero targets in 2050 could be nearly £300 billion less than official projections, according to an analysis drawing on the computer model used by Whitehall. The savings over the period to 2050 – equivalent to £415 for every household every year – would come about from a greater use of home-grown renewable green gas in the energy mix.
The analysis commissioned by the Anaerobic Digestion and Bioresources Association (ADBA) and conducted by BMA (Business Modelling Applications) draws on the AI-assisted whole energy system model used by the UK’s Department of Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) and the National Energy System Operator (NESO).
This webinar, organised as part of Net Zero Week 2025, will present the key outcomes from the study and highlight the contribution green gas can make towards achieving the government’s net zero targets.
Speakers:
Chris Huhne, Chair, ADBA (chair)
