Richard Tice: Subsidy payments to renewables rise despite promises of lower prices
Subsidy payments to renewables questioned

Richard Tice criticizes increasing subsidy payments under Contracts for Difference (CFD) to the renewable energy sector, alleging that the industry continues to seek higher taxpayer support while failing to deliver on promised lower prices.

Tice suggests that this dynamic misleads the public about the true cost of renewable energy.

Tice has raised concerns in other areas of public finance, recently questioning the NEST pension fund's decision to invest in costly foreign private credit funds due to high fees and long lock-in periods. He has also cautioned that Labour party discord is increasing risk premiums on UK government debt, citing policy failures and stagnant growth. These interventions reflect Tice's ongoing scrutiny of government spending and investment strategies.
