Responding to
Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change Ed Davey's announcement on
tariffs, Greenpeace energy campaigner Louise Hutchins said:
“The government can
tinker with the tariff system all it likes, but until Britain reduces its
reliance on volatile world gas markets, even the cheapest tariff will keep
rising.
"If the prime minister is really serious about tackling bills, he should
stop his chancellor’s dash for gas in the Energy Bill and focus on clean,
home-grown renewables and efficiency measures. That’s the only way to bring
bills down in the long run.”
