The Worldwide Fund for Nature (WWF) has called for more investment into renewable energy technologies such as microgeneration systems in order to meet requirements for a low-carbon global industry.
In its report, Climate Solutions 2, the international organisation said that renewable energy generation, carbon capture and storage, low-carbon agriculture and sustainable forestry are vital to reduce the effects of global warming.
These should be backed up with government policies encouraging businesses and homeowners to install microgeneration systems on their properties, it added.
Keith Allot, head of climate change for the WWF, said: “Climate Solutions 2 draws a line in the sand that we cannot cross. We have reached a pivotal moment – we need a complete industrial shift towards a low-carbon future.”
Smart Energy Services, which provides news on the progress of smart meter operations around the world, recently claimed that the UK is far behind European countries such as Germany when it comes to implementing microgeneration systems.
