London council launches not-for-profit energy company
0Barking and Dagenham Council has launched a not-for-profit energy company.
Beam Energy has been launched with the aim of helping residents save money, and provides 100% of its energy from solar and wind generators.
Council leader Darren Rodwell said, “Nobody should pay more than they have to on their fuel bills.
“For too long prices have been increasing faster than most people can cope with, and we hear horror stories about people going without food and the bare essentials just so they can pay for heating to stay warm.”
