Energy Security and Net Zero (including Topical Questions)

MPs question a government minister

MPs will question the Energy Security and Net Zero department on its current priorities and performance. This is a routine opportunity for backbenchers and opposition parties to interrogate government policy on electricity supply, renewable energy targets, decarbonisation, and the costs and benefits of the net-zero transition. Topical questions allow members to raise urgent or contemporary issues without advance notice.

Energy policy shapes bills for millions of households, industrial competitiveness, and whether Britain meets its legally binding climate targets. These questions reveal how Labour is balancing the cost-of-living crisis against net-zero commitments, and whether it is moving quickly enough on renewables and grid investment to keep the lights on as demand rises.
