“The UK remains one of our core markets for investment, underpinned by strong fundamentals”, commented Barney Coles, senior managing director and co-head of clean energy at Capital Dynamics.
“We continue to see sustained momentum for the wider energy transition at a time when more investment is needed to meet the UK’s dual energy security and climate goals”, he adds.
The project benefits from the UK’s Contracts for Difference (CfD). CfD contracts, awarded through the government-owned Low Carbon Contracts Company, are aimed at providing large-scale projects with price stability.
BayWa R.E. – a renewables developer making the sale – says CfD contracts from the seventh auction round (AR7) add value to the Hampshire-based project.
“We are delighted to have secured a CfD contract in AR7, which further enhances the project’s long-term value. We are proud to see the project move into its next phase and look forward to advancing our wider solar, wind and BESS pipeline across the UK and Ireland”, said Sarah Drummond, director of commercial, risk & project delivery at BayWa R.E. UK & Ireland.
In February this year, the UK acquired a record high 4.9GW of solar power through CfD auctions.
