Contracts for Difference (Definition of Eligible Generator) (Amendment) Regulations 2026

Contribution

While the Government are continuing to deliver our broader nuclear programme through Sizewell C and the Rolls-Royce small modular reactor programme, we should also ensure that there are appropriate mechanisms to support continued nuclear generation at existing stations where such financial incentivisation is needed and offers value for money. Without support, the operators of nuclear power plants may decide not to undertake the investment needed to extend their operational lifetimes.
