Nottingham-based energy supplier fails to pay £9.5m in subsidies

Robin Hood Energy may have licence revoked if it fails to pay total sum to Ofgem

Robin Hood Energy, the energy supplier owned by Nottingham city council, has failed to pass on 9.5m in renewable energy subsidies after collecting them from customers through their bills.

The supplier has already claimed the sum from its customers, to be used to support renewable energy projects, but missed the deadline to pay its share of the money to the industry regulator, Ofgem last month.
