The next Contracts for Difference auction will open to applications in December 2021.
Together with the government’s response to the Supply Chain Plans and the CfD contract consultation, the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) confirmed on Friday (7 May 2021) that the fourth round of the subsidy scheme will begin at the end of the year.
It hopes that this announcement will “provide further clarity to prospective participants”, which significantly includes solar PV projects. This follows BEIS confirming in November 2020 that the technology – which had been left out of the two previous auctions – will fall into Pot One in the upcoming AR4, along with onshore wind.
