Department for Energy Security and Net Zero

To help keep the British people safe from the climate emergency and support energy security, we are cooperating pragmatically and securely with China, while also challenging them on issues such as forced labour in supply chains. That's why Energy Secretary Ed Miliband was in China for formal talks to accelerate climate action, including refreshing a UK-China Clean Energy Partnership to securely collaborate on mutually benefitting areas such as clean technologies. While there, the Energy Secretary also: 🟦 Met with National Energy Administrator Minister Wang Hongzhi and Ecology and Environment Minister Huang Runqiu. 🟦 Gave a talk on global collaboration to tackle the climate crisis at Tsinghua University and saw carbon capture and hydrogen power at Energy Valley in Changping.
