A joint briefing from Greenpeace, Friends of the Earth, RSPB, WWF and the Association for the Conservation of Energy

The Energy Bill will shape the energy sources used to power Britain for the next forty years.  Over £100 billion investment is now needed over the next decade as a fifth of our older power plants face closure and neglected infrastructure is upgraded. What they are replaced with will have long-standing consequences for the future competitiveness of the economy, energy prices and consumer bills.
