Energy Bill 2013 - update for Report stage (278 KB, PDF)
The Energy Bill 2012-13 to 2013-14 is a ‘carry-over’ Bill, which means it has been continued from the previous Parliamentary session in the Commons. The Bill started its passage through Parliament in the Commons, and it has not yet been into the Lords.
The Bill now has its Report Stage scheduled, for 3 June 2013. This note provides an update to some of the more controversial areas, and to previous Library research briefings on the Bill (following Committee Stage and for Second Reading, as well as on the draft Bill).
All of the tabled amendments and proposed New Clauses are available on the Parliament website. This brief update note does not address all of these, but a selection of issues only; a decarbonisation target, energy tariffs, biomass, new nuclear, demand reduction and community energy schemes.
