When the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) published its final remedies package on 24 June, aimed at making the competitive energy market more effective, it was seen by some as a damp squib. The remedies were largely unchanged from those in the preliminary notice, but the CMA took a softer line on how consumers had suffered from poor competition in previous years, shifting some of the blame for £1.7 billion in missing savings from the big six to consumers themselves. However, the Authority has set up some battles in the coming months to get its package adopted.
