The Energy Market & Policy Update

We’re closing in fast on a full year of Labour government, and DESNZ is continuing to escalate its plan to deliver ambitious reforms to our energy system. Delve into our latest Energy Policy & Regulation Report for in-depth analysis on the latest developments shaping the energy landscape, including:

  • A new regulatory reality for TPIs? how proposals for the formal regulation of Third Party Intermediaries (TPIs) have the potential to strengthen consumer protection, increase market transparency, and ensure TPIs support the energy sector’s transition to cleaner power.
  • How zonal pricing could shake up the market: the implications of regionally priced power could be considerable, leading to potentially reduced market liquidity and a scale back of investment in green energy.
  • The June 2025 spending review: billions of pounds worth of funding has been unlocked for energy projects, including the Sizewell C power plant. So, what does this nuclear renaissance mean for renewables?
  • The launch of GB Energy: now formally established by the Great British Energy Act and having made its debut investment, we wait to see whether it will become a credible force in the energy transition.
  • Other industry news: the potential impact of the flagship Planning and Infrastructure Bill, progress made on the Zero Emissions Vehicle mandate, and other efforts to drive investment in clean energy infrastructure.
