The reason is clear: wind farms receiving over £200, £230 or £250 per megawatt-hour in the UK are in receipt of high-constraint payments during periods when the grid cannot accept their power or through older high-subsidy schemes. Such payments are often linked to specific, often Scottish-based, onshore wind projects during high-wind, low-demand times—and, incidentally, this is where the Government insist on building the majority of new onshore wind farms.
