このページは、英国のエネルギーシステムオペレーターが発表した報告書を基に、ネットゼロシナリオが英国にとって最も安価な選択肢であると主張しています。報告書では、従来の化石燃料依存からの転換が経済的にも環境的にも有利であることを示しています。再生可能エネルギーの活用やエネルギー効率の向上が、長期的に見てコスト削減に貢献するという観点も強調されています。このようなシナリオを実現するためには、政策の支援や技術革新が不可欠であると結論付けています。

このページは、英国のエネルギーシステムオペレーター(NESO)が発表した報告書に基づき、2050年までの「ネットゼロ」目標を達成するシナリオが最もコスト効率が良いと述べています。このシナリオは、次の25年間で年に360億ポンドの節約をもたらし、国内総生産(GDP)の約1%に相当します。これに対し、気候対策が遅れるシナリオでは、より高いコストがかかりますが、投資の規模は小さくて済むとのこと。報告書は、ネットゼロ達成のための投資が必要であるとし、化石燃料の輸入削減や雇用の支援、健康の向上に寄与すると強調しています。さらに、気候損害を無視した場合の年間平均140億ポンドの「節約」は、全体的なコストに比べると意味がないと警告しています。
