South West England and South East Wales Science and Innovation Audit
South West England and South East Wales Science and Innovation Audit Annex K: Resilience, Environment and Sustainability Theme Report A Science and Innovation Audit Report sponsored by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy K Annex K: Resilience, Environment and Sustainability Theme Report 1. Introduction The Resilience, Environment and Sustainability theme of the Audit has been undertaken to assess the opportunities for the region to enhance prosperity and resilience associated with climate and environmental change and sustainable development. Quotes from business, captured through an independently commissioned survey, highlight the essence of the theme: “new business models will be unlocked through future energy and environmental demands and concerns”, “the mood and the climate is think differently, do things differently, look for different opportunities”. This theme recognises the extensive, vibrant and internationally excellent capability, assets, and research in the region and builds on a broad environmental goods and services sector, alongside regional priority sectors in environmental futures, agri-food/tech, energy, digital, water, low carbon and high value manufacturing. Over a quarter of the UK’s major environmental research organisations have a base in the region and there are almost 2,000 scientists working in relevant areas. The total research expenditure on this theme in 2014-15 was £271m, and relevant university research activity is showing much stronger growth compared to the Russell Group. There are 25,000 enterprises in the region based in sectors relevant to the theme and 153,000 jobs. Employment has grown sixteen times faster than other sectors in the region. In Devon the concentration of environmental scientists is four times higher than the national average. -
