This Plan lays out a roadmap for Devon to achieve net-zero carbon by 2050 at the latest, with an interim target of 50% reduction by 2030 below 2010 levels.
Net-zero Devon will be quite different from how it is now. Achieving net-zero will have strong spatial components, and so will need to be spatially planned for. Where things are in Devon and how they connect shapes most areas of our lives, it is a cross cutting issue and driver of GHG emissions.
Transport accounts for 31% of Devon’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The sector is the single largest emitter of GHG across the County, which also reflects the UK-wide position. Reducing emissions from transport is key to successfully reaching net-zero.
