Peak Cluster: Job Creation

Asked by Esther McVeyConservativeDepartment for Energy Security and Net ZeroTabled Answered 22 May 2026UIN 1145

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, whether his Department has undertaken analysis of the number of jobs that will be created by the Peak Cluster project.

Answered by Michael Shanks

This information is not held by the Government. The Peak Cluster’s planned CCUS project has not been identified as one of the four CCUS Clusters for support through the government’s CCUS Cluster Sequencing process and is not in receipt of any funding from the department. Consequently, the information held, and analysis undertaken by the department on the project is limited at this stage.
