The answer: because we’re paying for it three times over.
While we’re told the shift to green energy will “save the planet,” what they don’t tell us is that it’s crippling ordinary people, driving up energy bills, and lining the pockets of elites and corporations.
Here’s how the scam works:
1️⃣ You Pay to Use the Energy
We all pay sky-high monthly energy bills—even though much of the electricity now comes from supposedly “cheaper” sources like wind and solar. So why are prices still going up?
Because energy prices are still tied to gas markets regardless of how it’s produced.
The grid is unreliable and can’t store or transmit energy efficiently, driving extra charges.
Reference: Ofgem price cap reports show household costs rising sharply since 2021—even as green energy grows.
2️⃣ You Pay to Build the Infrastructure
Billions in public subsidies are handed to private energy firms via Contracts for Difference and green levies.
These are guaranteed profits for investors, funded by your taxes and energy surcharges.
The public shoulders the risk. Corporations take the reward.

3️⃣ You Pay While Others Profit
Offshore wind farms and seabed leases generate massive profits—but not for you.
In 2023/24, the Crown Estate raked in £1.1 billion, mostly from leasing out our national seabed.
That money goes to the Treasury, but the monarchy still pockets a cut—£86.3 million annually via the Sovereign Grant.
King Charles asked to forgo some of it, but the system remains unjust and unaccountable.

Who Benefits?
💼 Billionaire investors
🌬️ Green energy corporations
👑 The Crown Estate
🌍 Foreign-owned utility companies
Who Pays?
💷 You. Every. Single. Time.
🥶 Pensioners who can’t afford heating
👨👩👧👦 Working families buried by costs
🏭 British businesses crippled by high bills
Enough Is Enough.
It’s time to call this what it is: a green cash grab—not a green revolution.
We must:
⚡ Reclaim energy sovereignty
🏗️ Reinvest in secure, affordable domestic power (like UK-made Small Modular Reactors)
❌ End the triple-charge system that punishes British citizens
Let’s stop being the cash cow for a broken system.
Let’s put the British people first. Always.
