Outcome
The consultation closed on Monday 24 January 2021 and it received no responses. As a result the CAP will decrease to £245/MWh from its current value of £305/MWh on Tuesday 8 February 2022.

Consultation for a generic Metering Dispensation based on D/534
Seagreen Wind Energy Limited (SWEL) has applied for a site specific Metering Dispensation for a solution to the issue of metering its Low Voltage Direct Current (LVDC) supplies on its Seagreen Offshore Wind Farm. SWEL would be happy for it to be generic, as long as this does not introduce any delay.
We are seeking views on whether D/534 could be made generic instead of site specific, and whether it could be adapted to be more generic by including the various solutions under D/461 and D/474 and these Metering Dispensations end dated.
Outcome (11 January)
The SVG and ISG approved D/534 as we recommended subject to the condition that the Direct Current (DC) metering solution is not used for measuring DC supplies to customers for billing purposes. We have updated the Statement of Generic Metering Dispensations to reflect their decisions. You can find more details about the consolidated solution to metering LVDC supplies on Offshore Wind Farms on the statement.
