摘要

Neither the referendum campaign, nor the evidence we have received, revealed widespread concerns that EU membership is damaging UK energy competitiveness or adversely affecting consumers. Whilst there are undoubtedly weaknesses in the operation of some EU policies on energy and climate change, notably the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS), the Secretary of State, the Rt Hon Greg Clark MP, acknowledged that cooperation with EU partners was generally mutually beneficial. The UK has consistently been a driver of high standards and ambitious climate change targets.
