Embedded Benefits ruling should result in “major savings for consumers”, says Citizens Advice

22 Mehefin 2018

Citizens Advice has responded to the decision to dismiss the application for a judicial review of Ofgem’s proposals (CMP264/CMP265) to change charging arrangements for embedded generators.

Victoria MacGregor, Director of Energy at Citizens Advice, said:

“Today’s decision should level the playing field for power generators, resulting in major savings for consumers. These loopholes have allowed embedded generators to benefit to the tune of hundreds of millions of pounds by avoiding significant costs, such as electricity transmission charges. Ofgem’s decision to change these rules was the right one”
