Sustainability – The Regulators Role
The Utility Regulator has a vital role to play in promoting sustainability as we are the main gate keepers to infrastructure investment in three sectors with high environmental impact – electricity, gas and water.
In March 2008 the Utility Regulator published a paper entitled “Sustainability – the Regulator’s Role.” The paper states that the Utility Regulator has a role to play by gathering and publishing more information, contributing its expertise and experience to wider government policy and regulating differently.
