How Electricity is Priced in the UK
John Conway & Zack Stevens of EON UK Plc
1.            What is lurking behind an electricity price: Explaining  the elements that make up an electricity price. A fully delivered price is made up of 22 separate elements – suppliers’ costs, government low carbon levies; transportation; other industry charges; and with smart operation what can be avoided? – all will be revealed.
2.            Wholesale Market overview: Much more than weather, supply & demand effect the sometimes rollercoaster energy markets.  We’ll explain some of the major global effects like the Middle East; Eurozone Crisis; Global LNG shipments; US Shale gas and even Somali pirates.
