Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak MP announced this year's Budget and Spending Review.
David Smith, Chief Executive of Energy Networks Association, which represents the UK and Ireland’s energy networks, commented: “Today’s Budget and Spending Review is a step towards delivering government’s plans for a net zero future, including further efforts to decarbonise transport, boost offshore wind and provide help for non-domestic properties to install green technologies.
“Backed by regulation that delivers early investment, the energy networks will continue to play a pivotal part in unlocking these benefits and delivering the smarter, more flexible energy system that homes and businesses need.”
