MPs and players from grassroots clubs take to a pitch on the River Thames to spotlight how low-carbon technologies have been helping clubs to lower energy bills. 

The Football Association’s (The FA’s) ‘Greener Game’ programme, supported by E.ON Next, has seen clubs save up to 25% on their energy bills allowing them to invest more in their facilities and communities

Responding to the new drive for clean homegrown power in the Government's proposed Seventh Carbon Budget (CB7), Chris Norbury, CEO of E.ON UK, said:

E.ON’s Green Funding Solutions team has been recognised at the 2026 Greater London Energy Efficiency Awards, winning for its large-scale retrofit partnership with Barking and Dagenham Council, helping to make the energy transition fairer and more accessible for local communities.

Anthony Ainsworth, COO of npower Business Solutions, tells Utility Week Live how flexibility – in homes and businesses – is a key part of making the energy transition affordable and sustainable

• 93% of buyers say energy uncertainty is shaping what they look for in a home
• E.ON Next data reveals sales for solar panels and batteries (+182%), air source heat pumps (+129%) and EV chargers (+18%) have soared between February-April this year
• Property expert Dion Dublin reveals future‑ready energy solutions – like solar panels, home batteries, heat pumps and EV chargers – are fast becoming a key selling points

E.ON has today (11 MAY 2026) announced its planned acquisition of OVO, a UK residential energy supplier. The transaction represents a significant investment by E.ON Group into the UK market and is about accelerating consumer energy flexibility - putting control in customers' hands, bringing bills down, and reshaping the energy system around people.

Across Europe, a new wave of smart home technology is making it easier for people to generate, store and use electricity - from 'plug-in' solar and battery to new-build homes with energy efficiency built into their very foundations

A better deal for bill-payers: how batteries can bring value for homes and also reduce the risk of overbuilding the grid

A change that will lead to more accurate bills and a timelier picture of energy usage for every customer, while supporting a smarter, more flexible energy system.

Across Great Britain, the energy system is undergoing one of the biggest transformations in its history. As more homes switch to electric heating, electric vehicles, and other low-carbon technologies, demand on the electricity network is rising rapidly. This shift is key to making the transition to clean energy work for everyone, but it also brings a challenge: how to expand the system without pushing energy bills even higher—especially when so many are already struggling to afford them. 

Communities across the UK are finding new ways to generate and share their own clean power - helping schools, households and public buildings reduce energy costs and build local resilience, and keeping benefits within the community

Responding to Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) plans to break the influence of gas on electricity prices, Chris Norbury, CEO of E.ON UK, said:
