THE BRIEF ALEX IS WORKING FROM

Higher household bills will intensify affordability and political pressure, while potentially increasing energy-cost exposure across our operations and consumer services. Recommended actions: 1. Check Ofgem’s announcement and confirm the cap’s timing and scope. 2. Ask Finance to estimate exposure to higher energy costs. 3. Prepare a short affordability and consumer-impact line for internal use.
