A decade ago it became possible to get your electricity in the UK from a department store chain (though with the actual power supplied first by a Scottish utility and— as of 2018 —arranged and managed by Octopus Energy). Newer entrants, potential energy powerhouses, are on the rise in Italy, Spain and Denmark.
