The U.K. government will announce in the next two weeks plans to set a minimum price for carbon aimed at increasing certainty for investors in low-carbon energy generation, the Financial Times reported.
At the same time, mechanisms to promote nuclear power generation and renewables such as wind power will be proposed, the newspaper said.
The changes will be the biggest since the electricity industry was sold to investors 20 years ago, the FT added.
