About our UK Energy news

Latest news on UK energy, covering the latest developments in energy policy, renewable energy, oil and gas, electricity prices, and the transition to a low-carbon economy.

The UK energy sector is undergoing a significant transformation as the country aims to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. This feed provides comprehensive coverage of the key issues, challenges, and opportunities in the UK energy landscape, including updates on government policies, industry trends, and technological advancements from the newly formed Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ), which has taken over the energy policy responsibilities previously held by the now-defunct Department for Business, Energy, and Industrial Strategy (BEIS).

Stay informed about the latest developments in renewable energy, such as the growth of offshore wind, solar, and hydrogen projects across the UK. Our feed also covers news on the oil and gas industry, including updates on North Sea exploration, production, and decommissioning. Additionally, we keep you updated on the UK's nuclear energy sector, including the progress of major projects like Sizewell C and the debate surrounding the role of nuclear power in the country's energy mix.

Energy prices and the cost of living are critical issues for UK households and businesses. Our UK energy feed brings you the latest news on electricity and gas prices, as well as updates on government support schemes like the Energy Price Guarantee (EPG), Energy Bills Discount Scheme (EBSS), and initiatives to tackle fuel poverty. We also cover stories related to energy efficiency, smart meters, heat pumps, and the adoption of low-carbon technologies in homes and businesses.

The transition to a low-carbon economy is a key focus of the UK energy sector, and our feed provides insights into the challenges and opportunities associated with this shift. From the development of electric vehicles and the expansion of charging infrastructure to the role of carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) technologies, we cover the latest news and analysis on the UK's decarbonisation efforts.

Our UK energy feed also highlights the human and social dimensions of the energy sector, including stories about energy justice, community energy projects, and the impact of energy developments on local communities. We cover key events and conferences, as well as important policy announcements and decisions by DESNZ and the energy regulator Ofgem.

With constant updates from reliable sources, our NewsNow feed on UK energy is your go-to resource for staying informed about the latest developments in this critical sector. Whether you're an industry professional, a policymaker, or simply interested in the future of energy in the UK, this feed provides a comprehensive and nuanced overview of the key issues shaping the UK energy landscape.
