Delivering customer, cost, carbon and connections dividends

The article argues that the proliferation of new governing bodies sitting alongside existing authorities has created overlapping and underlapping responsibilities across policy, customer ownership, regional roles and digital coordination, leaving nobody clearly accountable when delivery slips. It matters because Clean Power 2030 cannot be reached without clarity on who decides what and where blame lies, and the answer is not reorganisation but a deliberate exercise in defining where existing organisations’ roles start and stop against clear timeframes and deliverables.

The article argues that 2025 is the year in which Clean Power 2030 either acquires real delivery momentum or quietly slips, and sets out twelve resolutions across customer engagement, system integration, digitalisation, skills and tariff reform. It matters because each resolution is targeted at a specific decision maker, from Mission Control to Ofgem to the Department for Education, and progress against them will be the practical test of whether the policy framework is now organised for delivery.
