star this property answer text <p>Since 2014, the Contracts for Difference scheme has proven itself highly effective at driving deployment of large-scale renewables while rapidly reducing costs. The scheme has now contracted over 30GW of new low-carbon capacity, including 20GW of offshore wind. The Government continuously reviews the scheme to ensure it remains fit-for-purpose as our electricity system evolves and we work towards our net zero ambitions. In 2022, the Government published a three-phase evaluation of the scheme, which found that the scheme was meeting its objectives. <a href="http://wqa.parliament.uk" target="_blank"><sup>[1]</sup></a></p><p> </p><p><a href="http://wqa.parliament.uk" target="_blank"><sup>[1]</sup></a><a href="https://eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.gov.uk%2Fgovernment%2Fpublications%2Fevaluation-of-the-contracts-for-difference-scheme&amp;data=05%7C01%7CParliamentary.PQ%40energysecurity.gov.uk%7Cd1f8e4f936ba4caad2d208dbe9e03818%7Ccbac700502c143ebb497e6492d1b2dd8%7C0%7C0%7C638360921454431797%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=72IdjwUzDFhwc2riVLiQ9NeO8Ktb7MhHNpeV9cK31yI%3D&amp;reserved=0" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/evaluation-of-the-contracts-for-difference-scheme</a></p>
