One of Labour's big promises during the election was the creation of a new publicly owned body to tackle the massive bills the British Public was facing and aid the transition to renewable energy.
On the 15th May 2025, the creation of GB Energy was given Royal Assent. And former chief executive of Siemens UK, Juergen Maier was named as its chairman.
Anna Damski, from East Anglia Bylines, and Charlie McCarthy, from Bylines Scotland, have a sit down with Jurgen and ask him about his career, what GB Energy will do to reduce emissions, and will it lower our energy bills?
