…, including reuse and disposal of waste The Tees Valley’s emissions today Local and regional estimates of carbon emissions start from a baseline of 2011, which is the baseline for most statistics in this strategy. Although emissions figures for 2020 are available, this strategy uses figures from 2019 due to the impact of the international response to Covid-19 making figures from 2020 highly…

… mandated an 80% cut overall in national greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 and set out a legal framework for reducing emissions across the UK economy, made up of five-year targets called Carbon Budgets. The Act also established the Committee on Climate Change to advise government on achieving Net Zero and to set Carbon Budgets. In June 2019, the target was revised to a 100% reduction – making…

… contribution to carbon emissions reductions at the national level, with the potential to deliver reductions of 80MT CO2 over the period to 2050”. The Local Industrial Strategy sets out how Tees Valley will “Lead the way as an exemplar region for clean energy, low carbon and hydrogen” by: ■ Developing the technology, infrastructure and supply chain linkages needed to maximise the impact of clean…

… levels today. Our aim is for a sizeable proportion of the region's emissions – predominantly those relating to industrial emissions – to be eliminated by 2030 through the delivery of a local large- scale carbon capture, utilisation and storage system. We have identified five key areas which will be our focus and we will work in partnership with a wide range of local and national partners…
