LCP Delta sees Britain at 83% clean power in 2030, short of 95% target

LCP Delta's GB Power Market Outlook 2026 forecasts that 83% of Great Britain's electricity generation will come from clean sources by 2030 on current plans, short of the government's 95% target, though it says faster build could reach 90%, with 95% by 2032 (LCP [https://www.lcp.com/en/media-centre/press-releases/gb-set-to-miss-2030-clean-power-target]). The government's own Clean Power 2030 Action Plan is the document fleets should be watching, not because it promises certainty but because it leans on independent advice from the National Energy System Operator to underpin the whole strategy (DESNZ). For fleets banking on a decarbonised grid to validate EV charging's carbon credentials, or timing charger and solar investment against a fixed 2030 date, our view is that building slippage into the plan now beats discovering it in year nine.
