Step in the right direction, hope it suvives negotiations..
A good walkthrough of the leaked (and therefore not yet final) EU regulation to ‘future-proof electricity bills’
And thumbs up to Rory and Alastair for listening and for being willing to engage so constructively!
Last week I met Alastair Campbell & Rory Stewart of The Rest Is Politics and we talked energy costs and renewables in public and in private.
Glad to see my keynote feature in the latest episode (Alastair was in the audience) - it comes up around the 17-min mark.

Much of my thinking which I shared with Alastair also here janrosenow.substack.com/p/do-renewab...
LEAK: The Commission's "future-proof electricity bills" draft says electricity must be taxed no higher than gas.
And it uses a clever workaround to get round the unanimity that has kept energy tax reform stuck for years.

Electrification hides huge variation under the averages.
Buildings lead (nearly half electric and China tripled since 2000).
Transport's barely moved off 1% until very recently.
Industry stuck at 1/3.
There has been real progress but concentrated. New Substack coming: janrosenow.substack.com
