Net Zero Week (5–11 July 2025) marks the UK’s national awareness week for accelerating progress toward net zero emissions. For energy-intensive sectors such as manufacturing, logistics, chemicals and heavy industry, this week isn’t just symbolic – it’s a valuable reminder of the opportunity to transform operations, reduce costs and secure a more reliable energy supply.
At Red Hawk Group, we work with high-usage energy businesses to help them navigate the energy market, optimise procurement, and align with low-carbon energy sources. To celebrate Net Zero Week, we’re highlighting the most important developments in the supply of energy to UK industry.
Offshore wind: turning policy into progress
While offshore wind continues to face industry challenges, policy clarity remains key. One year after the general election, companies like Ørsted are urging Government to maintain momentum on planning reforms and support frameworks. Offshore wind still represents one of the UK’s biggest opportunities for clean, scalable, and secure energy supply for business.
Securing supply for electrified transport and logistics
Zero-emission trucks are ready. Operators are prepared. But access to consistent, affordable electricity is critical to adoption at scale. Red Hawk Group supports logistics and manufacturing clients in preparing energy procurement and infrastructure plans to power their future fleets – ensuring reliability and cost control.
“The future of transport is electric, and the sector is signalling that it’s ready.”
Levelling the playing field with electricity levies
One recurring theme this Net Zero Week has been the need to rebalance energy costs by removing levies from electricity bills. This would help accelerate the uptake of electrified processes across UK industry, while reducing system costs.
We support this direction and help clients secure cost-effective supply agreements that reflect the shifting policy landscape.
Nuclear and grid infrastructure: long-term stability
From Sizewell C’s strategic nuclear investment to wider grid improvements, infrastructure is central to securing long-term industrial supply. Demand flexibility and smart energy management are also emerging as key tools for maintaining supply security as more renewables enter the system.
What this means for your business
Net Zero Week is a timely prompt to act. Whether it’s securing future supply, planning grid access, or adapting your procurement model to a changing energy market – Red Hawk Group is here to help.
