Also cheers to the mod who updated the title - I didn't want to editorialise it myself - though not sure if either the original or new encapsulates what is on offer here: "the “exceptionally low” results of a government auction on Monday for subsidy contracts show two offshore windfarms will be built for £57.50 per MWh, way below even the most extreme predictions. The price is half of what new offshore windfarms were being awarded just two years ago." This is really something considering where the figures came in 5 or 10 years ago, and amazing to compare against the number from 2015: Estimated UK LCE for projects starting in 2015, £/MWh Power generating technology (Lowest 2015 figures in £) Nuclear PWR (Pressurized Water Reactor)(a) 82 Solar Large-scale PV (Photovoltaic) 71 Wind Onshore 47 Offshore 90 Biomass 85 Natural Gas Combined Cycle Gas Turbine 65 CCGT with CCS (Carbon capture and storage) 102 Open-Cycle Gas Turbine 157 Coal Advanced Supercritical Coal with Oxy-comb. CCS 124 IGCC (Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle) with CCS 137 (a) new nuclear power: guaranteed strike price of £92.50/MWh for Hinkley Point C in 2023[49][50]) (from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_of_electricity_by_source https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_of_electricity_by_source ) Also love this line towards the end of the article: "The lower the price, the more electricity generating capacity can be built. The government had allocated £240m-a-year for the subsidies but the competitive prices mean it now expects them to hit £176m-a-year at most."
