answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/09/2022 answer text <p>The Government is committed to minimising energy costs for businesses and consumers.</p><p> </p><p>The precise bill impact of Allocation Round 4 (AR4) will be dependent on future wholesale electricity prices, which remain uncertain. Although difficult to predict with certainty, the Government expects AR4 to have a relatively small impact on household bills. AR4 will deliver capacity which is a critical part of the Government’s strategy to reduce system costs and will increase energy independence by contributing towards the transition to a low carbon electricity system.</p> answering member constituency Chelsea and Fulham answering member printed Greg Hands question first answered 06/09/2022 14:12:44 answering member 1526 label Biography information for Greg Hands

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/09/2021 answer text <p>We have commissioned external analysis to improve understanding of the role that large-scale, long-duration electricity storage will play in the electricity system, how much may be required at different points in time, and the benefits of different durations of storage. It includes a range of different technologies such as pumped hydro storage and less established long duration storage technologies like hydrogen storage and compressed air energy storage. This analysis will inform how we address the barriers to deployment that such storage faces. We aim to publish the results of this analysis in due course.</p> answering member constituency Berwick-upon-Tweed answering member printed Anne-Marie Trevelyan question first answered 13/09/2021 16:48:18 answering member 4531 label Biography information for Anne-Marie Trevelyan
