Commenting on the publication of the Government's policy to support customers in the energy crisis, E.ON UK CEO, Michael Lewis, said: 

“We welcome today’s announcement, which goes a very long way to mitigating the worst impacts of a cost-of-living crisis that would have left thousands, if not millions, of homes and businesses struggling with bills this winter and into next year.

“All of our resources are being used to help customers get through the challenge we all face, and we have worked relentlessly to ensure the full extent of this crisis is understood by Government. We’re pleased to see this Government has listened, understood and intervened with speed and on a scale to match the severity of the crisis.

“I welcome the ongoing commitment to a zero-carbon economy by 2050 but I’m disappointed not to see a greater commitment to energy efficiency as a long-term solution to the current crisis, and as the foundation stone of that cleaner, greener future. The only way to insulate Britain from this kind of crisis in future is to improve our homes and dramatically reduce our fossil fuel use, and I will continue to urge the Government to do much more to deliver an energy efficiency transformation of our housing.

“The clear message I would give to all our customers is to sit tight and we will implement this new package of support for you. In the meantime, I’d always urge anyone who is struggling to get in touch as there are ways we can help, including cold weather payments and targeted support such as through our E.ON Next Energy Fund."
