Energy bosses in the UK will have their bonuses curtailed when suppliers and brokers break the rules.

Who will do that? Ofgem - no chance.

A diversion from profiteering. Why no curbs?

Need customer-elected directors on Ofgem and energy companies.

Let customers vote on exec pay.

Exactly. Ofcom, Ofgem, Ofwat.
In fact anything with an Of in it, is a complete waste of oxygen.

Ofgem is a lame duck!

Customer-elected directors on Ofgem, Ofwat, Ofcom and IPSO is a really good idea. It might encourage them to do their jobs.

Am I right thinking the govt theoretically needs to only nationalise ONE energy Co and then brutally undercut all the others, forcing them to compete or sod off?

Obvs Ofgem needs a rocket up it, too.

A 4.0 after a month is a good start. Track the seasonal figure over the winter, since COP dips in cold snaps. If you're in the UK, break-even against a 90% gas boiler at the current Ofgem cap (26.32p electricity vs 7.97p gas) is a seasonal COP of about 3, so you have headroom.

Ofgem is biased in favour of the companies. Nothing will happen.

We have Ofgem whose main purpose in life seems to be to protect energy co profits instead.

Also they're not public utilities as such cos Thatcher sold everything off years ago

Remember, all of could have been happening five or even ten years ago, before the problem became acute, but the 2015-19 Tory governments, in particular, blocked grid investment to save pennies in the short-term. You want someone to blame? Blame David Cameron and Theresa May.
