The Act is in four parts with 23 schedules and includes provisions covering three main areas: i) the civil nuclear industry; ii) sustainability and renewable energy sources; and iii) energy markets and regulation. The Act will create a single wholesale electricity market for Britain, called the British Electricity Trading and Transmission Arrangements (BETTA). The provisions covering electricity and gas interconnectors implement a number of requirements in the EU's 2003 Gas and Electricity Directives and its Electricity Regulation. Explanatory notes produced to assist in the understanding of the Act are available separately (ISBN 0105620041).
