In January, the Mayor launched a new, green energy company, exclusive to Londoners, called London Power. The company is a partnership between the Mayor and Octopus Energy.

London Power is advertised as offering all Londoners:

  • fair and competitive pricing, always
  • automatic rollover on to London Power’s cheapest comparable plan after fixed term plans end
  • electricity generated from 100 per cent renewable sources
  • hassle-free experience with simple energy plans, quick online switching, and world-class customer service.

Tomorrow, the London Assembly Audit Panel will undertake a detailed review of London Power due to concerns around its status, particularly against the backdrop of the current energy market. The Panel will also discuss a report on the Mayor’s Solar Together Scheme.

The guests are:

  • Chetan Lad, Head of London Power
  • Catherine Barber, Assistant Director for Environment, Greater London Authority (GLA)
  • David Gallie, Executive Director for Resources, GLA

The meeting will take place on Thursday, 15 December 2022 from 2pm, in the Chamber at City Hall, Kamal Chunchie Way, E16 1ZE.

Media and members of the public are invited to attend.

The meeting can also be viewed LIVE or later via webcast or YouTube.
