Blackouts and Bailouts: London's Energy Struggle

View descriptionShare

London paid a record price to dodge a blackout in July. But the city might not be able to dodge blackouts come winter. Javier Blas, Bloomberg Opinion columnist covering energy and commodities, tells host Francine Lacqua that if this winter is even slightly colder than normal, it's going to be difficult for the UK to keep the lights on. They discuss the reasons for the energy crisis and explore how bad it's likely to get. Plus, Bloomberg’s Rachel Morison details the government's energy plan and what Liz Truss or Rishi Sunak might do in Number 10.
