In this episode, we speak to Sam Hollister and Bertie Gyenes about Great Britain’s progress toward its Clean Power 2030 ambition.
We discuss:
-
How the latest Contracts for Difference (CfD) auction delivered a major turnaround, securing offshore wind, onshore wind, and solar at scale.
-
What the results mean for deliverability, timelines, and investor confidence.
-
How consumer costs balance out when combining wholesale impacts and CfD top-ups, and why resilience to gas price swings improves.
What’s one thing you would like listeners to take away from this?
- The direction of travel is back on track, but keeping momentum over the next few auction rounds is essential to turning ambition into delivery.
