GB Grid Plan to Invest in UK Electricity Grid by 2030

Andy Burnham is set to announce the creation of a new government body called Great British Grid, aimed at investing in Britain's electricity grid. This publicly owned company is expected to enhance competition for connection projects to reduce UK energy costs to European levels within ten years. The Labour party plans to fund this initiative through the existing budget of GB Energy, a public green investment company established last year. This development is significant for ordinary investors as it may influence future energy and related investment costs in the UK.
