100% Renewable Energy for the United Kingdom (Diesing et al. 2023)

P. Diesing, D. Bogdanov, R. Satymov, M. Child und C. Breyer

Abstract — A 100% renewable energy mix for the UK would save well over £100bn in achieving net zero by 2050, compared to the UK Government’s current strategy. It would also mean more than 20% lower cumulative carbon emissions in the process. The study, carried out by renowned energy modelling academics at LUT University in Finland, involves hour-by-hour simulation of different scenarios for reaching net zero for UK energy systems. The report was commissioned by 100percentrenewableuk. It is the first time that a 100% renewable model has been directly compared to the current UK Government’s pathway, which includes nuclear power and fossil fuels with carbon capture and storage.
