Blown away, CfD Round 3 delivers record low price for offshore wind
CfD Round 3 results
UK Government announces record low prices for offshore wind with the results of the CfD Round 3 auction.
Key points
- The UK’s Third Contracts for Difference (CfD) auction has cleared at the record low price of £39.650/MWh for Delivery Year 2023/24 and £41.611/MWh in 2024/25 (2012 real).
- Six offshore wind, four remote islands wind and two Advanced Conversion Technology projects secured contracts.
- Government has secured 5.8GW of new capacity, without spending a penny of the £65m budget.
- This increases the challenge faced by other low carbon technologies to match the cost reductions achieved by offshore wind.
- The results open up the possibility for offshore wind to play a greater role in delivering Net Zero by 2050.
