  • Advanced Forecast CfD Generation
    This dataset provides a forecast out to 24 months. This dataset contains CfD generation forecasts for six Quarterly Obligation Periods. Different levels of sensitivity have been applied on forecasting the figures and are termed as base case, low case, and high case sensitivities. The base case assumes our best view of Start Dates and Market Reference Prices. The low case sensitivity adopts the same assumptions as for the base case, but with the assumption that all CfDs expected to generate in the forecast period commence CfD generation six months after the Start Date or an alternative later start date assumption of the base case. It also assumes an increase to power market prices over the period covered by the advanced forecast. The high case sensitivity adopts the same assumptions as for the base case, but with the exception that it assumes that all CfDs expected to generate in the forecast period commence CfD generation two months prior to the Start Date or an alternative early start date assumption of the base case. It also assumes a decrease to power market prices over the period covered by the advanced forecast. The Advanced Forecast CfD generation dataset replaces the previous 15 Month Forecast CfD generation dataset, which is no longer available. This dataset is updated following the end of each Quarterly Obligation Period.

  • Winter Peak Demand
    This dataset provides forecast and actual Winter Peak Gross Demands up to 23/24 and forecast and actual Winter Peak Relevant Demand from 24/25 by delivery years. Under the Capacity Market (CM), Suppliers are obligated to pay a monthly CM Supplier Charge to cover the costs of Capacity Provider payments, where they have made a supply during the Peak Period. Up to and including Winter 23/24 this charge was apportioned across Suppliers by their share of the Total Gross Demand for the Peak Period within a Delivery Year. From Winter 24/25 onwards this charge is apportioned across Suppliers by their share of the Total Relevant Demand for the Peak Period within a Delivery Year. The Peak Period shall mean the Winter months between Nov – Feb (inclusive). For Data for Winter 24/25 onwards 100% exemption for EII applies (Relevant Demand).

  • Forecast Market Reference Prices
    This dataset includes the daily forecasted weighted average Baseload Market Reference Prices and Intermittent Market Reference Prices for the current and following operational quarters, by technology type. Baseload Market Reference Price is the value used as a reference point to calculate difference payments for applicable generators. The BMRP is calculated on a seasonal basis using a traded volume weighted average based on forward season data received from LEBA. The BMRP is published in April and October of each year. Intermittent Market Reference Price is used as a reference point to calculate difference payments for applicable generators. It is calculated from the GB Day Ahead Hourly Price published by Day Ahead Indices. This dataset is updated following the end of each Quarterly Obligation Period. Please note that our forecasts simulate hourly prices across multiple scenarios, and the published prices represent the averages derived from these simulations over the quarter. Consequently, the capture price differences cannot be back-calculated from these averaged values as this detailed information is lost in the hourly averaging process over the simulations, but are taken into account in individual simulations.

  • Reconciled Daily Levy Rates
    This dataset includes the actual daily reconciled levy rates and eligible demand volume (EII and GEE exempted) for each performed settlement run type. Energy Intensive Industries (EII) are those industries that are determined by BEIS as intensive users of electricity. They are exempted from paying CfD levy, up to 85% of Supplier's daily gross demand. Eligible power generated abroad and supplied to GB can be used to reduce a suppliers’ liability for the CfD levy. Green Excluded Electricity (GEE) means any amount of electricity determined as such. This dataset is updated following the end of each Quarterly Obligation Period.

  • Advanced Forecast ILR TRA
    This dataset provides a forecast out to 24 months. This dataset contains Interim Levy Rate , Total Reserve Amount and CfD Payment forecasts for six Quarterly Obligation Periods. Different levels of sensitivity have been applied on forecasting the figures and are termed as base case, low case, and high case sensitivities. The base case assumes our best view of Start Dates and Market Reference Prices. The low case sensitivity adopts the same assumptions as for the base case, but with the assumption that all CfDs expected to generate in the forecast period commence CfD generation six months after the Start Date or an alternative later start date assumption of the base case. It also assumes an increase to power market prices over the period covered by the advanced forecast. The high case sensitivity adopts the same assumptions as for the base case, but with the exception that it assumes that all CfDs expected to generate in the forecast period commence CfD generation two months prior to the Start Date or an alternative early start date assumption of the base case. It also assumes a decrease to power market prices over the period covered by the advanced forecast. The Advanced Forecast ILR TRA dataset replaces the previous 15 Month Forecast ILR TRA dataset, which is no longer available. This dataset is updated following the end of each Quarterly Obligation Period.

  • Historic Advanced Forecasts
    This dataset provides historic forecast data. Different levels of sensitivity have been applied on forecasting the figures and are termed as base case, low case, and high case sensitivities. The base case assumes our best view of Start Dates and Market Reference Prices. The low case sensitivity adopts the same assumptions as for the base case, but with the assumption that all CfDs expected to generate in the forecast period commence CfD generation six months after the Start Date or an alternative later start date assumption of the base case. It also assumes an increase to power market prices over the period covered by the advanced forecast. The high case sensitivity adopts the same assumptions as for the base case, but with the exception that it assumes that all CfDs expected to generate in the forecast period commence CfD generation two months prior to the Start Date or an alternative early start date assumption of the base case. It also assumes a decrease to power market prices over the period covered by the advanced forecast. This dataset includes all historic Advanced Forecasts published from September 2015. The prevailing Advanced Forecast can be found in the Advanced Forecast ILR TRA dataset. Once the prevailing advanced forecast is superseded, the outgoing forecast will be amended to the Historic Advanced Forecast dataset. The Historic Advanced Forecasts dataset includes both the Advanced Forecast ILR TRA dataset and the previous 15 Month Forecast ILR TRA dataset. This dataset is updated following the end of each Quarterly Obligation Period.

  • Operational Costs Levy
    This dataset includes the actual, forecast, and excess CfD Operational Costs and demand volumes for the current and historic operational periods. An electricity supplier must make a payment (“an operational cost payment”) to the CfD counterparty for each day that supplier makes an electricity supply during an operational cost period. The amount of an operational cost payment to be paid by a supplier for a day is equal to the amount of electricity supplied by that supplier on that day multiplied by the operational levy rate. Any amounts received by the CfD counterparty greater than the costs it incurred in respect of the relevant period must be paid back to electricity suppliers. This dataset is updated following the end of each financial year.
