Ofgem and net zero

Inquiry

The Committee will consider the role of the Office of Gas and Electricity Markets (Ofgem), the UK’s energy regulator, in the transition to net zero. It will consider Ofgem’s work in this area, whether changes are needed to its objectives and powers, how net zero relates to Ofgem’s other responsibilities, and Ofgem’s relationship to Government and Parliament.
