The T-4 Capacity Market auction has cleared at a record high of £30.59/kW/year, due largely to the decommissioning of old assets and higher capacity needs.
The target for the T-4 2025/26 Capacity Market auction is to remain broadly in line with its predecessors, while the T-1 2022/23 target has risen compared to 2021/22.
All Capacity Market Units (CMU) may be required to be part of the Balancing Mechanism, according to a new consultation launched by the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS).
The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) has increased the target for the next T-1 Capacity Market auction from 0.4GW to 2.4GW following the latest guidance.
