Wider coordination, a cross-government approach, and engagement to ensure the public is brought along with the process, all clear priorities highlighted for the UK's spatial plan in today's contributions. This increased certainty can drive investment in the energy transition.

Thank you for organising such a helpful event and a fantastic panel of experts. I was greatly encouraged to see such support for our Strategic Spatial Energy Plan.

Focus on delivery, reducing risk and community engagement to unlock investment and ultimately cheaper bills.

Wider coordination, a cross-government approach, and engagement to ensure the public is brought along with the process, all clear priorities highlighted for the UK's spatial plan in today's contributions. This increased certainty can drive investment in the energy transition.

In addition to delivering #netzero , restoring #nature and ensuring a just transition through community engagement is a key theme developing as part of today's discussion on spatial planning in the UK.

Bruno Gardner Phoenix Group outlines measures required to drive investment in the energy transition at our event this morning.

- Greater long-term strategic certainty nationally .

- Increased policy certainty.
