However, certain parts of it have also seen extraordinary profits partly due to record gas prices. As set out in the Energy Security Strategy, the Government is consulting with the power generation sector and investors to drive forward energy market reforms and ensure that the price paid for electricity is more reflective of the costs of production. Those reforms will take time to implement. In the meantime, the Government is urgently evaluating the scale of these extraordinary profits and the appropriate steps to take.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Faversham and Mid Kent answering member printed Helen Whately question first answered 13/06/2022 12:53:21 answering member 4527 label Biography information for Helen Whately
