"The government is right to look beyond this recession to the growth markets of the future and this commitment to place the UK at the forefront of the low - carbon industrial revolution is a good start. The economic opportunities, especially in manufacturing, are potentially significant."
"However, the hard work starts now. This vision needs to backed up by a clear strategy to translate it into reality with a priority to ensure that the UK is the number one destination for low - carbon businesses. These are extremely competitive markets and governments around the world are making equally ambitious plans. "
