Final Forward Work Programme for 2025 to 2026

Decision

We asked

We asked for your views on our proposed programme of work for 2025 and 2026. The consultation set out our main reform projects under three of our five strategic priorities. It also set out how we plan to deliver towards the cross-government Clean Power 2030 programme.

You said

We received 46 responses from industry participants, consumer groups, members of the public, retail energy suppliers, as well as from industry, trade and government bodies. 41 respondents gave their consent for their responses to be published.

A wide range of feedback was provided and most of it was largely supportive of our approach. Respondents encouraged us to develop effective policy solutions to protect consumers and support the energy sector in meeting clean power goals by 2030, and net zero targets by 2050.

We did

Our final Forward Work Programme for 2025 and 2026 addresses many of the points raised in the responses. It provides a complete view of the main reform projects we intend to carry out and sets out our consultations and calls for input or evidence for the year ahead. This allows people to plan how they will respond to the changing regulatory environment.

We have also included details of our ongoing regulatory activities and low carbon energy and social schemes that we administer on behalf of the government.
