Water and wastewater regulator Ofwat has launched its £4 million Water Discovery Challenge calling on support from a range of sectors, including energy, to innovate within the water industry.
Ofgem has opened the door for more stringent financial and consumer service-related licensing standards, potentially making it tougher for prospective energy suppliers to enter the market.
Energy suppliers have been urged to adopt ‘energy as a service’ models in order to help further the energy transition, with one industry representative calling for the end of bills measured in kilowatt hours.
