The Government has launched the Review of Electricity Market Arrangements (REMA), which aims to create the market arrangements to deliver the investment needed to decarbonise and find the most cost-effective route to a net zero power sector by 2035. It also aims to ensure electricity supplies as variable renewables make up a larger proportion of the generation mix.
The recent consultation closed on the 10th October. The Government is currently analysing responses and aims to publish a response before Spring. This will be followed by a process of developing, refining, and narrowing down options for reform with industry.
