Details

The climate compatibility checkpoint aims to ensure that before a new oil and gas licensing round is offered, the compatibility of future licensing with the UK’s climate objectives is evaluated.

This document outlines the design of the checkpoint including:

• its overall structure
• the individual ‘tests’ that comprise it
• the sources of data that it will use

See the consultation on the design of this checkpoint.
