New boost green investment announcement of £400million in funding opportunities
Bill Gates and Boris Johnson have announced a new partnership to boost green investment. Breakthrough Energy Catalyst and the UK Government will invest £400million into ground-breaking clean energy technologies. This will increase the opportunities for companies who design and produce technologies to help save our planet.
As part of the £1 billion Net Zero Innovation Portfolio, the Government has already committed at least £200m. This was announced in the Prime Minister’s 10 Point Plan for Green Industrial Revolution.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson said:
“We will only achieve our ambitious climate goals if we rapidly scale up new technologies in areas like green hydrogen and sustainable aviation fuels – technologies that seemed impossible just a few years ago.
Ahead of COP26, this new partnership with Catalyst is a boost to the UK’s vision for a green industrial revolution. It will help to bring innovative technologies to market globally, while building new skills and creating high-quality jobs across the UK.”
