Restructure the UK Energy Market to Adopt the Norwegian Model of Resource Wealth
Adopt the Norwegian model: Establish a state-owned energy entity with equity in all North Sea projects. Legislate to decouple domestic prices from global markets, ensuring UK-extracted oil and gas is sold to UK households at a "cost-plus" social tariff to end fuel poverty and record-high bills.
We believe the UK is resource-rich, yet residents face record fuel poverty while oil giants report billions in profits. Norway, sharing the same North Sea, has a £1.3tn wealth fund and stable costs. We feel our current "free market" model fails us; we pay global prices for our own resources. The Government must stop prioritising private shareholders over national security. We believe transitioning to a Norwegian-style state equity model could ensure our natural wealth lowers domestic bills, not just corporate dividends.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
