Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, whether Welsh onshore wind projects will be eligible to apply for any future Contracts for Difference Pot 1 auction in the same way as Scottish onshore wind projects in the event that a future auction is held.

The Contracts for Difference (CFD) scheme is applicable to Great Britain. Onshore wind is an established (Pot 1) technology for the purposes of the CFD scheme. No decisions have been taken on running another allocation round for established technologies.
