Net zero economy grew 9% in 2023 to be worth £74 billion, report says
The “net zero economy” – from renewables and electric cars to green finance – grew 9% in 2023 to contribute £74 billion to the UK, a report has shown.
Net zero businesses, supply chains and spending by employees were worth 3.8% of the overall UK economy, the study commissioned by the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit (ECIU) said.
The sector supported the equivalent of 765,700 full-time jobs, the report by Economics, with analysis from The Data City, found.
