Overview

The Government has three objectives for energy policy - to keep the lights on, to keep energy bills affordable, and to decarbonise energy generation. Simultaneous to the publication of this policy paper the Government is introducing the Energy Bill (HC Bill 100 2012-13, ISBN 9780215050151) into Parliament to implement the key aspects of Electricity Market Reform (EMR) as well as making a wider range of reforms. The Government set out its intentions in the EMR white paper issued in July 2011 (available at http://www.decc.gov.uk/en/content/cms/legislation/white_papers/emr_wp_2011/emr_wp_2011.aspx). The Bill will drive the GBP110 billion of investment needed in the electricity sector by 2020, to ensure reliable, diverse and low-carbon power. With a fifth of the UK's electricity generating capacity due to close this decade these reforms are vital.
