Alternative Fuels: Manufacturing Industries
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what assessment his Department has made of the capability of UK ceramics manufacturers to transition to lower-carbon fuels.
Answered by Sarah Jones
Carbon savings through fuel switching from fossil fuels to low carbon alternatives are needed for the industrial sector to transition to net zero. Government is developing a suite of policies to deliver these savings.
As it does so, it is closely engaging with sector trade association Ceramics UK, as well as ceramics manufacturers directly, to identify and understand the challenges and barriers to decarbonisation of this diverse sector.
