Recommendation 49
49
Paragraph: 171
Ultimate responsibility for energy security and decarbonisation remains unclear within Government
Conclusion
Energy security is vital to the UK’s national interest: responsibility within Government for promoting and ensuring energy security ought to be crystal clear. In a rapidly changing governance structure which includes new responsibilities for Ofgem and the new NESO body, it is unclear to us who holds ultimate responsibility for ensuring energy security and resilience while also driving forward progress on decarbonisation.
