of UK electricity needs to come from renewable sources in 2020 to meet climate change targets. Ireland’s target is 30%

In 2007, only 5% of UK electricity came from renewable sources and Ireland imported 96% of all energy used

32%

Challenges facing the UK and Ireland

2016When UK electricity demand will exceed the capacity of present power stations

New plants under construction only delay this date until 2020

increase in electricity demand if half of Britain’s passenger cars were powered by electricity

Meeting this demand through nuclear power would require 10 new reactors

smarter cities

Peterborough City CouncilOne of four UK Environment Cities

Challenge

Transform Peterborough into the leading sustainable city in the UK

Solution

Online platform to monitor and analyse data on energy, water, transport and waste systems

Benefit

This will enable the various agencies to share information and make ecologically-minded decisions to maximise sustainability. The system will also allow Peterborough residents to provide feedback and offer suggestions for improvement

"This exciting project will produce a valuable tool to help achieve our target for significant and truly sustainable growth. Our residents, business people, the public sector and utility providers will have access to dynamic information about our environmental performance, giving them the power and incentive to make real improvements.“
