Commenting on Government plans to help cut energy bills for businesses [1], Jess Ralston, senior analyst at the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit (ECIU) said:

“With taxpayer support only set to last for six months under the current plan, the question is what happens after that?

“Experts have said time and time again that the government’s approach to the gas crisis is missing a key component – conserving energy. While billions will be spent on bailing out bills, much less is targeted at the root of the problem, that we waste huge amounts of our energy.”
