Ofgem is seeking views on our proposed financial framework for Long Duration Electricity Storage (LDES) projects applying under Window 1 of the cap and floor regime. This consultation outlines our approach to setting cap and floor levels and designing incentive mechanisms to support timely project delivery and control costs. The consultation also sets out our proposed competitive approach to determining cap and floor levels, truth telling incentives, along with the financial model and its accompanying handbook, which explains how revenue levels are calculated and how project bids are assessed.
This consultation is particularly relevant to LDES projects applying under the first application window, which opened on 8 April 2025. We also welcome input from stakeholders, including industry participants, energy experts, and members of the public. Your feedback will help shape a fair and effective assessment process that supports the Government’s Clean Power 2030 goals.
To respond, please submit your views in a PDF document on headed paper, clearly identifying the responding organisation or individual. Send your response to LDES@ofgem.gov.uk with the subject line: Financial Framework Consultation Response from [company/individual name]. We encourage all interested parties to contribute their perspectives.
The deadline for responses is 17 July 2025. We aim to publish the final Financial Framework in Q3 2025.
