Advanced bid analysis of UK CfD AR7 using Aegir Quant
Expectations for the UK CfD Allocation Round 7 (AR7) are high, driven by government signals and a growing pool of eligible fixed-bottom offshore wind projects.
Currently, 8.1 GW of fixed-bottom projects could enter the UK CfD AR7, meaning competition would be limited if the government awards over ~5 GW, as in the previous round. However, a potential reforms to the CfD eligibility criteria that’s currently being discussed could add ~17 GW of eligible fixed-bottom capacity, turning this Allocation Round into a highly competitive one.
Aegir Quant provides clients with advanced bid simulation capabilities – including CfD strike price benchmarking, Monte Carlo uncertainty and option value simulations – in an intuitive and secure environment. Aegir Insights’ clients can access Aegir Quant with a custom setup of all AR7 potential projects.
