Engineering Zero

The Engineering Zero campaign continues to advance and promote the crucial contribution engineers can make in response to the need for urgent action on climate change following COP26.

Resources and publications

Access and filter all Academy publications.

Policy publications

Net zero policy

Achieving a thriving, low-carbon economy through rapid and large-scale systemic change.

Net Zero

Engineering stories

What will a net zero world of 2050 look like? How will engineering help us get there?

Watch

Ask the engineers

A series of webinars putting questions to engineering experts on skills, hydrogen, and the role of COP events.

Watch

Getting to net zero

A series of video explainers exploring how to take a systems approach towards energy, transport and the built environment to reach net zero.

Watch

The COP26 summit came at a critical moment for global society, as it seeks to avoid the worst impacts of climate change. Engineers are a crucial part of the solution and the profession must step up and play its role.

Read our President's blogpost: Bringing the engineering profession together on net zero

Following COP26, the our Engineering Zero campaign continues to advance and promote the crucial contribution engineers can make in response to the need for urgent action on climate change.

Net zero policy

The role of hydrogen in a net zero energy system

A comprehensive understanding of how low-carbon hydrogen could contribute to achieving net zero

Decarbonising construction

The construction industry plays a vital role in the economy but must decarbonise if the UK is to meet net zero by 2050

Rapid low regrets decision making for net zero policy

Making confident decisions in the face of uncertainty

Education and skills

We will mobilise a collective commitment from the UK engineering profession to put environmental sustainability and emissions reduction at the very heart of education and skills provision. By leveraging accreditation and professional development processes, we will ensure that both emerging and existing engineers are fully equipped to play their role in achieving net zero.
