Turquoise says UK clean-energy infrastructure gaps prolong exposure to fossil-fuel price shocks
  • An energy-market analysis warns that abandoning net zero would leave Britain more exposed to fossil-fuel price shocks.
  • Grid constraints, slow connections and insufficient long-duration storage limit clean-power use, leaving Britain exposed to fossil-fuel prices that still set the market.
  • The UK has the world's highest industrial electricity prices, putting pressure on its industrial base and energy-intensive investment.
  • A fossil-fuel shock matching 2022 could cost as much as Britain's total net additional cost of reaching net zero by 2050.
