Shift all non-infrastructure costs off electricity standing charges onto company profits or general taxation. Require Ofgem to separate policy levies from true network costs, make suppliers absorb bailout and policy expenses, and ensure foreign-owned firms reinvest profits into UK infrastructure.

Government to Direct Ofgem to Remove Standing Charge for Homes with Solar Panels
I call on the UK Government to set a strategic direction for Ofgem to ensure that energy companies remove standing charges from energy bills for households that have installed solar panels and thus significantly reduced their reliance on the national grid.
Scrap and replace the Marginal Pricing Model for UK Energy
Scrap and replace the Marginal Pricing Model for a fairer pricing structure with lower consumer and business energy bills. The UK is free to set its market rules post-Brexit. We think this change would cut bills, stabilise the economy, protect households, and secure the UK’s long-term energy future.
Energy supplier charging excessive standing charges
Energy provider attempting to increase direct debit significantly on unoccupied property despite minimal usage. Standing charges continue despite no real consumption.
Require utility companies to refund standing charge when no service
Government to require utilities companies through regulators like OFWAT and OFGEM to cancel daily service charge when companies fail to deliver service throughout the day.
Require energy companies to allow changing from smart meter to traditional one
We don’t feel like people are being told the truth about smart meters – although they have been found to be safe some people could be sensitive to the radio waves they emit. Customers should have the option to have these meters removed.
