It's an ambitious and positive plan, but it is fairly shocking that there is no mention of biogas or biomethane in the summary above (perhaps it is mentioned in the Action Plan itself, but maybe not!).  Biogas uses waste feedstock (food waste, farm waste etc), makes renewable baseload energy regardless of the sun/wind conditions, and produces a chemical-free digestate that can be used back on farmers' land as an environmentally-friendly alternative to fertilisers producing using fossil fuels.  In terms of the energy transition, it really is a no-brainer.   As was mentioned at the ADBA conference in London just before Christmas, "there is no net-zero without biogas".
