We are seeking input on whether we should consider making changes to the contract for difference allowance methodology in the default tariff cap.
Call for input description
In this call for input, we outline our views on points raised by suppliers and other organisations from our recent engagement. We are seeking clear evidence on whether we should make changes to the methodology for setting the contracts for difference allowance in the default tariff cap. We set out some questions we would like views on but welcome any wider views too.
This review is part of our wider review of the wholesale cost allowance in the default tariff cap, as outlined in our 2025 and 2026 programme of work.
Who should respond

- energy suppliers
- energy industry bodies
- consumer groups
- charities
