Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, if his department will publish a comparative analysis of the support available under the (a) Energy Bill Relief Scheme and (b) Energy Price Guarantee.

Monitoring and evaluation processes are underway for both the Energy Bill Relief Scheme (EBRS) and Energy Price Guarantee (EPG),and further details will be published in due course. Illustrative examples of the level of discount that could be received under the EBRS and EPG have been published on GOV.UK, as well as the unit rate reductions for the EPG scheme for the periods of October to December and January to March. Given the number of different contractual arrangements, range of demand and complexity of the non-domestic market, it would not be practical to undertake a direct comparative analysis between the two schemes.
