The Liberal Democrats have backed a plan to reduce household energy bills by changing how new renewable projects are paid for. This initiative, called 'pot zero', involves negotiating a guaranteed price with renewables firms, which could help break the link between electricity and wholesale gas prices, potentially halving bills by 2035. Energy Secretary Ed Miliband has begun transitioning to this model, but the Lib Dems seek to accelerate its implementation across all renewable energy generators.
