Thoughts on today’s #energybills announcement. Short 🧵:
Sensing that what will be a genuinely welcome announcement today on much needed support to cover soaring energy bills, will be tainted by supply-side ideas to placate the climate-sceptic right of her party.
If measures to increase fossil fuel extraction are greater than those needed to increase renewables/nuclear and reduce demand (INSULATION) then this will be an opportunity missed, and could make the £££bn support package even more expensive to fund.
