The energy regulator Ofgem has told ITV News that power networks could face fines if it is proved that they failed to respond quickly enough to reconnect customers left with no electricity after the storms at Christmas.
After thousands of families were stranded without power over Christmas, Ian Marlee from the energy regulator Ofgem has told me that power companies could be fined.
He said it had been "dreadful" for many families and that Ofgem will now be asking the power networks to show they responded efficiently and quickly enough.
Marlee told me there had been some good practice and it was "too early" to say if the power companies had failed in their duty to consumers. But he said Ofgem could take a range of action against the firms if they were found to have let consumers down.
