PM says partnership will help emerging solutions that are still too expensive for commercial development
The UK government has announced plans to launch a £400m package of investment alongside the US billionaire Bill Gates to boost the development of new green technologies.
Boris Johnson said the deal would help power a “green industrial revolution” and develop emerging technologies that were currently too expensive to be commercially successful but were essential to hitting the government’s climate goals.
Speaking at a Global Investment Summit at the Science Museum in London on Tuesday, the prime minister said the partnership would help develop UK technology related to carbon capture and storage, long-term battery life, jet zero (zero-carbon aviation) and green hydrogen technology.

Unlike Musk, Gates has never actually built anything in his life. He’s just written software, while Musk is busy making cars and rockets.
Big difference.
I would be cautious of equating anything Trump supports as Soviet. https://www.muckrock.com/news/archives/2019/feb/26/trump-ai-executive-order/. About 5-6 paragraph is Dept of Ag.
Yeah he wants to own all the land and monopolize the food supply. Ask the Ukrainians how that worked out for them.
The UK has a Deep State, too.
Theirs controls Johnson.
He’s just another BiteMe with a few more working neurons.
and the answer should be..let the free market work and keep valuable tax payer money out of it...its how we make millionaires.....the old fashioned way...
Boris was always a CINO. I researched his record back when he was Mayor of London and never bought the “British version of Trump” Kool-Aid.
