38% of businesses struggling with green policy uncertainty

Progress towards net zero risks being held back, as nine in ten of UK businesses call for greater government support to help meet targets.

From a survey of more than 1,000 senior decision makers from businesses across the UK, the BSI’s fourth annual net zero barometer published on 16 May, has found that despite 83% of businesses committing to achieving the UK’s net zero emissions target, nine in ten want greater government support to help reach these targets.

Half of respondents cited cost as the main barrier while 23% of organisations reported a lack of clarity on what net zero means, with a lack of guidance on how to take action. 38% surveyed said their ability to decarbonise was being held back by uncertainty over the government’s green commitments. 35% stated they were impacted by uncertainty over what the next government will do and 92% said that pre-election they wanted parties to show a strong commitment to the UK meeting its net zero goals via targeted policy measures.
