(asked on 3rd September 2018) - View Source
Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what comparative estimate his Department has made of (a) international auction prices and (b) UK auction clearing prices for onshore wind in each of the last two years; and what steps his Department is taking to support internationally competitive pricing in the UK auction clearing market.
This question was answered on 13th September 2018
No UK clearing prices exist that can be compared with international auction prices for this timeframe. In the 2015 Contracts for Difference auction, onshore wind cleared at £82.50/MWh (£2012 prices).
