Britain has agreed to pay into European Union development schemes as the price for rejoining the bloc’s electricity market, according to a draft text seen by The Telegraph. Taxpayer money will be funnelled into projects to build roads, airports and green energy facilities across the bloc’s poorer member states under the plan. In exchange, British energy companies will be allowed to trade freely in the EU’s single market for electricity. 🔗 telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/11…
