Answered by
Michael Shanks
Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero)
The Government has taken immediate action towards establishing Great British Energy – a new publicly-owned energy company, headquartered in Scotland.
The Government has now published the launch statement for Great British Energy, announced a chair and Great British Energy’s first major partnership with The Crown Estate. The Government is also introducing the Great British Energy Bill to Parliament, establishing Great British Energy so it can turbocharge investment in clean, home-grown power – boosting energy independence, creating jobs and tackling climate change.
