Lords to report on energy security after Brexit

The report explores a number of potential challenges Brexit may cause for the UK’s energy supplies and makes a number of recommendations for Government to mitigate these. It also highlights the consequences of leaving the Internal Energy Market and the Euratom Treaty for consumers, businesses and the energy sector.

During the course of the inquiry the Committee heard from across the industry, including representatives from Energy UK, National Grid and EDF. Also amongst the witnesses were His Excellency Jean-Christophe Füeg, Ambassador and Head of International Energy Affairs at the Swiss Federal Office of Energy, and Richard Harrington MP, Minister for Energy and Industry for BEIS.
