Securing the Future A policy Roadmap to Accelerate Industrial Decarbonisation and Strengthen Supply Chains
22 January 2025
As we look ahead, it is clear that the impact of climate change and the shift towards sustainable practices will profoundly reshape our markets. Both the urgency and scale of this transformation bring challenges and opportunities. We are pinned as one of the largest growth sectors for the UK as we decarbonise – we need to do this sustainably. For many businesses, the rapid pace of change required to do this will introduce significant uncertainty, and navigating these shifts without clarity and support can be daunting.
Our markets rely on stability. In this period of transition, government leadership is crucial. Focused regulation, clear incentives, international alignment, and a collaborative approach between industry and government will be key to ensuring a smooth and successful transition. However, while there is a vital role for government to play, we also recognise that the market must lead the way and retain the flexibility to make informed decisions that drive innovation and efficiency.
Our proposal will strengthen the supply chain for UK industry, leveraging our members unique position to enable electrification nationwide. With expertise in technologies critical to decarbonisation and a practical understanding of the regulatory and operational challenges facing UK manufacturing, our membership is ideally placed to deliver impactful, scalable solutions.
As a leading voice in our sector, BEAMA and its members are committed to working alongside government to achieve our shared goals of decarbonisation and increased resource efficiency. Together, we can ensure that the journey ahead is one of progress, alignment, opportunity, and sustainable growth.
