Consultation on CAP increase to £340/MWh from 25 January 2022
This page gives details of a consultation on increasing the Credit Assessment Price (CAP) to £340/MWh. This two-day consultation will close at 17.00 on 7 January 2022. Please note the last notified CAP value of £380/MWh will not go live on 7 January following a Credit Committee decision on 5 January 2022 to retain the current CAP of £305/MWh.
Update (20 Jan 2022)
The Credit Committee has been monitoring market data and held a meeting on 20 January 2022 to decide if the last notified CAP value of £340/MWh was still reflective of the recent market data and/or to propose a new CAP value for consultation.
The Credit Committee decided to cancel the last notified CAP value of £340/MWh, which was due to go live on 25 January 2022.
They also proposed a new CAP value of £245/MWh, which will go live on 8 February 2022. The next scheduled Credit Committee meeting is on 27 January where a new CAP could potentially be proposed. Therefore, the minimum duration of the new proposed CAP (£245/MWh) will be between 8 February 2022 and 15 February 2022.
We have provided more information on the rationale for this proposed CAP on the consultation webpage. Parties are invited to respond by 17:00 on Monday 24 January 2022.
