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.
