UK National Wealth Fund's Strategic Direction on Clean Energy Investment

The UK National Wealth Fund aims to unlock over £70 billion in private investment to foster economic growth, transition to clean energy, and enhance national security. Prioritized sectors include clean energy innovations like carbon capture and green hydrogen, with confirmed investments including £55 million for electric vehicle charging infrastructure and £9.6 million for heating infrastructure in Solihull. The initiative is bolstered by a recruitment drive for new leadership and collaborations with Great British Energy for increasing clean energy production.
