This \u00a3300 million investment will help speed up the development of greener flights, and new ways of delivering the goods we order online. The UK is already recognized around the world as a center for green tech. Now we will lengthen our lead, supporting our industry and our citizens to reduce their carbon footprint.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\">Business Secretary Andrea Leadsom said &#8220;The possibilities for new ways to transport goods and services &#8211; or to get from A to B &#8211; are endless.This investment will help make the most of the exceptional talent and expertise we have in these industries, and ensure the U.K. leads the way internationally in designing and developing technology, from electric taxis to drones delivering parcels.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\">Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said &#8220;New technologies like electric and autonomous aircraft can help us tackle climate change, making journeys greener and working better for passengers. This funding will support the extraordinary talents of UK industry and academia, and demonstrate our country\u2019s position as a world-leading transport innovator.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\">The Future of Flight Challenge is delivered by UK Research and Innovation.
