The energy crisis is underpinned by a complex and volatile wholesale energy market. What factors affect the price we pay for our gas and electricity?
And how can a mid-sized businesses (or any business for that matter) navigate these current conditions?
Here in the UK, natural gas stilll largely dictates our energy prices. Around a third of our electricity is generated from gas, and the structure of our wholesale marketplace currently dictates that all prices track gas as the dominant
fuel type, despite increased volumes of much cheaper renewable supply. Energy market reform could change all of this in
the future, but for now it means that when gas prices are high, electricity prices are high too.
