MediaResponding to the House of Lords Industry and Regulators Committee report on Britain’s electricity grid infrastructure, Sam Richards, CEO of pro-growth campaign group Britain Remade, said:
“This report is a wake-up call, but also a roadmap. With the right reforms, Britain can unleash a clean energy revolution that lowers bills, creates high-quality jobs, and secures our clean power future. Moving to zonal pricing is a crucial step in achieving this and unlocking Britain’s full potential. It would help make smarter use of our existing grid, bring down electricity costs across the country and attract the investment needed to build clean energy where it’s most abundant.
“By cutting red tape, speeding up grid connections, and putting strategic planning at the heart of our infrastructure decisions, we can get Britain building again.”
