The Energy Region
As the most diverse energy region in the UK and with a backdrop of key skills developed over more than 40 years, the East of England is perfectly placed to deliver the Government’s national energy policy.
The region offers:
- A major investment opportunity - with energy business estimated to be worth more than £50bn in the coming years
- An energy portfolio which is extensive, diverse and growing
- An energy supply chain which is long-established, dynamic and expanding
- A location which is prosperous, internationally competitive, close to London and with a high quality of life
These wide-ranging benefits are derived from the region’s long heritage in offshore gas, conventional and nuclear generation, offshore windpower and biofuels. And they are further boosted by major assets for the future including carbon capture and storage and coal gasification.
The East of England will continue to prosper with the extensive expertise of its energy supply chain encompassing energy, engineering, environment, logistics and project management.
And all is located in a rich hinterland boasting a high quality of life, outstanding natural environment, economic prosperity and a close proximity to London. The region offers substantial investment potential today and for many decades to come.
The Government’s policy is to ensure a secure, affordable, sustainable and low carbon energy sector. The East of England is ready to deliver it.
