CfDs to be awarded in March

The Low Carbon Contracts Company has confirmed that applicants for contracts for difference would not find out the outcome of their application until 18 March 2015.

In an updated edition of the CfD Implementation Plan, the LCCC has said that the date represented the earliest point at which applicants would be notified.

It had previously been intended that applicants would be notified on 6 January. The plan further confirmed the sealed bid window would open on 18 February and will close six days later. The last day for contract signing is 17 April.
