Abstract
In the USA some utilities, for instance the Pacific Gas and Electric Company and the General Public Utilities Company (GPU) of Pennsylvania, have found that the promotion of energy conservation among their customers makes for good business. Indeed GPU, having got its fingers burnt over Three Mile Island, is now offering its customers a fixed return on every kilowatt-hour saved. How do we fare in that respect in the UK? In fact we don't and unless there is a remarkable change it is most unlikely that the privatized electricity supply and distribution set of companies as envisaged by the Energy Secretary, Cecil Parkinson, will have the same approach to the market as their brethren across the Atlantic.
