When we’ve got situation where around £50bn a year is spent through [pension] tax reliefs ... Given that’s coming from general taxation, I think it’s entirely legitimate that actions are taken that are in line with the general direction of government. And most governments thankfully do want to address the climate and nature crisis.

Caroline Lucas  Writer, campaigner and former leader of the Green Party of England and Wales

In this episode, we explore how to navigate the evolving landscape of the energy transition. To help our conversation, we’re joined by: 

  • Caroline Lucas, writer, campaigner and former leader of the Green Party of England and Wales. Caroline gives us her take on her debate with Michael Gove on the right approach to net zero, sets out the delicate balance between responsible stewardship and interference with corporate & political decision-making and gives an insider view on the political debate around delivering a low-carbon economy.
  • Clay Lambiotte, Partner at LCP. Clay explains how the drivers for the energy transition are changing at pace, outlines the common barriers to investing in this space, and highlights progress we should look out for next. 

This episode is in a three-part mini-series of Investment Uncut, covering some of the key themes being discussed at the Pensions UK Investment Conference 2026
