How Much Does The UK Govt Spend On Net Zero
June 15, 2025
 
By Paul Homewood

We looked at the new Spending Review, which has allocated £45.1 billion to Mad Miliband’s DESNZ to spend in the next four years.
 
I thought I would also try to put some costings on other Government expenditure which is devoted to the pursuit of Net Zero.

The Spending Review gives some clues:


£2.6 billion over Phase 2 (2026/27 to 2029/30) for decarbonising transport

£2.3 billion for local transport “improvements”, including cycle lanes and bus lanes, again over Phase 2

£2.7 billion a year for sustainable farming and nature recovery.

The Renewable Heat Incentive at £1.3 billion a year.


In addition there is international climate aid, which will be funded out of the Official Development Assistance budget. This has been running at over £3 billion a year for this year and last.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
