How the shifting landscape of energy costs is reshaping your bills

Over the next year, MEUC members will see energy bills continue to shift. Not because of wholesale prices, but because of what’s being added on top.

Transmission and distribution charges are rising. Levies like the Nuclear RAB charge are already on bills. And new support schemes, such as the British Industrial Competitiveness Scheme (BICS), are changing who gets relief.
Whether you’re gaining from exemptions or absorbing more of the cost, understanding how the non-commodity mix is evolving is essential for budgeting, forecasting and decision-making.
Delivered by Daniel Starman, Sales Energy Market Lead at Drax, this session will help end-users across all sectors get a clearer picture of where costs are heading and why.

Drax is the UK’s largest source of renewable electricity by output. They supply that power – plus added-value energy services – to the country’s businesses and other organisations.
Relying on sustainable biomass, hydro-electric power and pumped hydro storage, Drax generation assets provide essential support services to the UK energy system and are vital to its security of supply.
