Wholesale market reform

September 09, 2026By: Team Dale

We need to finish what the Tories started - they introduced price controls in the retail energy market seven years ago. 

It was half a job, resulted in the bankruptcy of half the market (30 companies) - because it was so half arsed.  How can we hope to control retail energy prices (our energy bills) if we don’t control wholesale energy prices.  It makes no sense - in any market. 

We make the case for reform of the wholesale energy market in this paper - the case for price controls across all generation and our North Sea oil and gas production.  The impact on our bills and on our whole economy will be profound - if we do this. 

We can insulate ourselves from the global fossil fuel price rollercoaster, bring our bills down to a bare minimum - and keep them there. 

Take back control of our energy bills, finish what the Tories started - nothing not to like..:)
