Sept 30 (Reuters) – Britain’s energy regulator Ofgem has signed up insolvency advisors from consulting firm Teneo on standby to help with a possible failure of a large energy supplier which cannot be resolved through existing procedures, Sky News reported on Thursday.

“Ofgem and (the) government prepare for a wide range of scenarios and have long standing contingency plans in place for any situation as needed. These processes include speaking to a range of organisations,” the watchdog said in a statement.

Ofgem has retained Teneo to act as special administrator if customers of a failed energy company cannot be passed on to a rival through its Supplier of Last Resort system, the Sky report said, though such a need has yet to materialise.

Last week, Ofgem had ordered Octopus Energy to supply power to about 580,000 domestic customers of Avro Energy. read more
