The energy sector - a liberalised market with a projected shortfall in generating capacity - presents a wealth of opportunity. Yet concerns over security of supply and an increasing recognition of the threat of catastrophic climate change have led to a market bedeviled by uncertainty at national and international level: the treatment of carbon emissions post-Kyoto; the drive to market integration across Europe; prospective changes in the Renewables Obligation and the treatment of distributed generation; planning system reform; the Climate Change Bill; and to cap it all yet another Energy White Paper.
