- The Government is making progress on assessing the Hendry Review into tidal lagoons. The issues are complex as they relate to an untried technology in the marine environment and a time when other renewable energy costs are reducing rapidly. The Government will publish its response to the review in due course.<\/li><\/ul>

- The latest Contracts for Difference round announced on 11 September secured a further 3.3GW of renewable electricity, enough to power 3.6 million homes.<\/li>
- This will see a saving of 5.4 million tonnes of carbon a year, the equivalent of the average annual carbon emissions from 2.8 million cars.<\/li>

- £557 million being made available for less established renewable electricity projects. The next Contracts for Difference auction is planned for spring 2019.<\/li>
- Spending on the Renewable Heat Incentive schemes will rise from £430 million in 2015-16 to £1.15 billion in 2020-21, and following the recent government consultation the Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation level will be increasing to 9.75% in 2020, rising to 12.4% in 2032.<\/li><\/ol>"}

We are pleased that the costs of established technologies such as onshore wind and solar are continuing to fall and are increasingly competitive with conventional generation. No decision has been taken on running another Contracts for Difference allocation round for these technologies but we have said that we do not believe that more large-scale onshore wind power is right for England.<\/p> It is right that we should focus support on those technologies where it is most needed, which is why we announced in the Clean Growth Strategy that we would make up to £557 million of annual funding available for less established technologies including, subject to State aid approval, onshore wind projects on remote islands that directly benefit local communities. The next auction is planned for spring 2019.<\/p>"}
