Energy Security and Net Zero (including Topical Questions)

MPs question a government minister

MPs will question the Energy Security and Net Zero department on current policy priorities and emerging issues. Topical questions allow backbenchers to raise urgent or newsworthy matters within the department's remit, covering areas such as renewable energy deployment, grid modernisation, energy bills, decarbonisation targets, and domestic energy efficiency. This session provides MPs with the chance to hold ministers accountable on delivery against net-zero commitments and energy security objectives.

Energy security and net-zero policy touches every household and business in the UK. Questions will likely probe the government's progress on meeting binding 2030 and 2050 decarbonisation targets, the stability of energy prices for consumers, and investment in renewable infrastructure. The answers reveal government priorities and identify gaps between policy intention and implementation.
