Clean Energy 2030–2050

Check your sector against 36 published targets. Seven are on track.

UK and Ireland clean energy targets, measured against official status.

Thirty-six legally binding or officially published clean energy targets, each carried with its own named source and the latest official status. We read the CCC, DESNZ, NESO, Ofgem, the EPA, SEAI and EirGrid so that you do not have to. Scroll down to see where each one stands.

The problem

36 targets. Fifteen are off track.

Another eleven are at risk — off the current pace, still reachable.

The root cause

Why the gap? The UK is 50.4 per cent below 1990 and needs the other half in twenty-six years.

Over halfway to net zero, with the CCC flagging delivery gaps on the rest.

The turn

Every target carried with its official status, not our opinion.

On track, at risk, off track or unknown — the status is the government’s own, and the source is named on every record.

Proof

Seven on track. Eleven at risk. Fifteen off track. Three with no clear official status.

Progress figures are national and authoritative, not our project sample.

What you get

Check where your sector’s target actually stands before you build a bid around the headline.

See which targets are off the pace but still reachable, and which have already missed.

Read the gap note on every record — what is still required, and over how long.

Compare the UK and Ireland positions on the same target, side by side.

The Targets
§ The honest headline

No objectives match those filters — clear one and try again.

Progress figures are national official data (CCC, EPA, DESNZ / NESO, Ofwat, SEAI, EirGrid and the regulators) — apples-for-apples with each target, not a GridteamAI project sample. The basis tag separates legal duties from policy ambition, a duty is never implied where none exists.

Flagship schemes are illustrative examples from GridteamAI’s verified map data, not a total. Workforce flags carry the deliverability read from the People Problem research. Verified 2026-07-16 · refreshed on the standard cadence.
