Chief executive of electricity and gas supplier speaks out after Theresa May vowed to step in to fix the market
The boss of one of Britain’s biggest energy companies has hit out at the prospect of a price cap on bills after Theresa May promised to step in to fix a market that is “manifestly not working for all consumers”.
Alistair Phillips-Davies, chief executive of SSE, said that it was disappointing that the retail energy market was still facing intervention having just undergone an 18-month investigation by the competition watchdog.
