Nigel is the Chairman of Cornwall and a respected independent commentator on competitive market issues.

He has extensive experience of energy restructuring in the UK and internationally in both the public and private sectors, especially governance related aspects.

As a civil servant, he was actively involved in the initial electricity vesting process in the UK and oversaw the establishment of National Grid. He spent much of the 1990s working overseas, involved in energy sector reform in a range of emerging and developed markets, but principally in Australia and New Zealand.

Nigel specialises in issues connected with market design, including the role of network operators and market operations in deregulated markets, the interfaces between them and the associated legal, regulatory, commercial and governance frameworks. His expertise and reputation have seen him elected three times as an independent industry member of the British Electricity Balancing and Settlement Code Panel.

On a day-to-day basis Nigel has final editorial control over Energy Spectrum and leads on all our consultancy work.
