Should the ban on acquisition-only tariffs remain?
22 May 2024
Utility Week Forum Keynote Stage
Amid turmoil in the energy retail market in early 2022 Ofgem introduced a temporary ban onacquisition-only tariffs (BAT) – meaning suppliers are obliged to offer the same tariffs to new and existing customers. With energy prices now stabilised Ofgem is considering the future of the BAT and has suggested it could be lifted later this year. This panel will discuss the merits of BAT and what place it might play in a post-price cap world.
