Net-Zero Economy

The West Midlands already leads the way on automotive innovation with the UK Battery Industrialisation Centre situated in Coventry.

A manufacturing powerhouse, we have connected supply chains in rail, automotive and aerospace. By building on these foundations we can attract new investment and create highly-skilled jobs.

Investment in new green technologies will also help reduce fuel poverty and improve household energy conservation.

The current economic fallout arising from Covid-19 is an opportunity to reset our economy in a way that is more equal, inclusive and sustainable.

By prioritising green growth, we can build back greener, and achieve our ambition to be a Net Zero region by 2041.
