Contracts For Difference (CfD) Expert Group on Metering

The group explores proposals and highlight potential questions, challenges and practical issues on metering, with a view to informing potential solutions and contributing to recommendations as requested by DECC.

The CfD Expert Group on Metering includes representatives from large and small generators, trade associations, government officials and industry experts.

Since the August publication DECC, in consultation with the CfD Expert Group on Metering, has further developed the metering policies designed for the CfD mechanism. These policies have been specifically designed to ensure that all types of generation can participate in the CfD Scheme.
