As lockdown measures begin to lift across the UK and the economy gears back into action, there has been much talk of the role the green recovery will play in the fightback.
Senior figures across the utilities sector have already highlighted the role the industry can play in providing employment opportunities and stimulating economic growth throughout the 2020s.
