Shield poorer households from costs of clean energy - Ofgem
The Guardian
|July 31, 2025
Britain's clean energy future risks creating "winners and losers" if lower-income households are not shielded from higher bills, the chief executive of Ofgem said yesterday.
Jonathan Brearley said a systematic approach to sharing the rising costs of the government's green power ambitions was needed to avoid poorer households facing soaring monthly payments.
The regulator has launched a root-and-branch review into how the costs of upgrading the energy networks can be recovered through home energy bills in a way that is fairer.
The review could include plans to cut standing charges for lower-income households while wealthier customers pay more.
