Britain’s power flexibility market is the second worst in Europe, a new report by the Association for Renewable Energy and Clean Technology (REA) has claimed.
Energy group Drax has become the latest supplier to take aim at the UK’s nascent EV market, launching an end-to-end EV service targeting C&I customers.
Drax has said its ability to support the UK’s energy transition will become increasingly important as low carbon power soars, but the Capacity Market’s ongoing suspension looms large over the firm’s 2019.
Haven Power, the Drax-owned renewable energy supplier, has announced a partnership with demand side response firm GridBeyond to target Haven’s business customer base.
The energy transition is walking the UK into a ‘two-tier economy’ where communities and businesses in whole regions of the country are left behind with higher bills and less access to new technologies.
The UK has reached a “major milestone” in its decarbonisation of the power sector, having witnessed renewables capacity exceed that of fossil fuel generation.
