Conclusion (the committee's words)
Small business energy customers engage with the energy market more like individual consumers than companies. Despite this, they have access to none of the same protections, leaving them vulnerable to opaque bills, contracts, and a limited number of energy providers. (Conclusion, Paragraph 138)
