The Government has published a Call for Evidence on introducing non-price factors into the CfD Scheme. In recognition of the deployment challenges currently faced by the renewable energy industry, the Government is exploring whether to introduce non-price factors in the CfD auction.
This Call for Evidence seeks views and evidence on whether potential reforms to the CfD, to value factors other than the price achieved in CfD auctions, could help accelerate renewable energy deployment and address energy security issues without impacting UK investment in the sector.
The Call for Evidence is now open and will close at 11.45pm on 22nd May 2023.
More information on the Call for Evidence, including how to respond, is available here.
