Contracts for Difference (Definition of Eligible Generator) Regulations: proposed amendment

This consultation seeks views on the government’s proposal to amend the Contracts for Difference (Definition of Eligible Generator) Regulations in order to specify that retrofit Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) projects, involving the connection of an existing power station to a complete CCS system, are eligible for a Contract for Difference (CfD). The proposed change would ensure that existing CCS policy is correctly and expressly reflected in the CfD legislation.
