The biggest threat to energy security for families and businesses in the UK is continued reliance on unstable fossil fuel markets. That is why we’re taking back control with clean, homegrown power to ensure our energy security, protect the British people and bring down bills for good.

DESNZ officials are working across government and with industry to understand the role low carbon ammonia could play in the UK’s future energy security.
