The retail energy world is changing in Great Britain. Energy prices for end consumers are increasing, driven by multiple factors. The structure of charges is under review with major implications for the economics of behind-the-meter investments in on-site generation and storage. New ways of procuring energy are appearing that bypass the traditional utility with industrial and commercial companies signing up to long-term deals with renewable generators in the form of corporate PPAs.
