Our final determinations on the disputes raised by Contracts for Difference scheme applicants during the 2025 delivery year.

Details

The Electricity Market Reform Delivery Body is responsible for assessing prequalification applications for the Contracts for Difference scheme and issuing decisions.

Where an applicant disagrees with a Delivery Body decision, it may request a review by the Delivery Body (a Tier 1 dispute). Following a Tier 1 review, the applicant may ask Ofgem to consider the decision and make a determination (a Tier 2 dispute).

In considering a Tier 2 dispute, Ofgem reviews whether the Delivery Body correctly applied the Contracts for Difference Regulations and the Contracts for Difference Allocation Framework when making its decision, based on the evidence that was available at the time.
