Details

This evaluation of Contracts for Difference (CfD), which took place between 2018 and 2021, assessed:

• the extent to which the scheme is meeting its intended objectives
• how and why any intended or unintended outcomes are being realised for developers of different technologies
• the effectiveness of delivery processes to help inform policy development around ways in which delivery of CfD allocation rounds could be improved in future

Findings from phase 1 of the evaluation were used to inform the five-year review of the Energy Act 2013.
