The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) publishes annual updated energy and emissions projections, which project future energy use and greenhouse gas emissions in the UK. These include projections of emissions reductions by sector, and sensitivity to fossil fuel prices and economic growth.

The 2016 energy and emissions projections are the most recent published projections. These are available here:

The 2017 edition of the energy and emissions projections will be published early next year.
