Power games

Article Abstract:

Privatisation has involved the whole of the electricity supply industry and the privatisation of the nuclear power industry is the most contentious part of the process. Companies were floated on the Stock Exchange at what appeared to be a low value, as the government was eager to ensure that the sale was a success. The regional electricity companies make around 85% of profits through distribution, and following privatisation they were encouraged to get involved in businesses not regulated by Offer.
