I am wondering why that is the case. The EU has recommended a windfall tax on the low-carbon, renewable energy companies. Clearly the EU has seen an opportunity there to intervene in the market. However, there do not seem to be any recommendations from the CRU that would directly impact things like the unit price, which would have a direct impact on utility bills. Why does the CRU not have that regulatory authority?
