Nuclear Power Stations: Cumbria

(asked on 20th February 2017) - View Source

Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what estimate they have made of the strike price for the Moorside nuclear power station under the Contracts for Difference regime.


This question was answered on 6th March 2017

It would be inappropriate for the Government to disclose any estimate of a strike price ahead of formal negotiations. Discussions with the developer, NuGen, on a possible contract are at a very preliminary stage.
