Recommendation 55

The Government must ensure that stakeholder organisations coordinate their efforts, that responsibilities and remits are clearly delineated and foster a shared vision of how the future energy system should look and how to get there. The role and powers of the Future System Operator and the Secretary of State need to be clarified, especially with respect to ensuring resilience and security of energy supply, and the FSO needs to be appropriately empowered and resourced to fulfil its mandate.
