There has been significant interest in UK Export Finance\u2019s (UKEF) Direct Lending Facility (DLF) since its enhancements were announced in the Budget. Since it was relaunched on 30 June 2014, the pipeline of potential export contracts has developed and now involves 28 UK-based exporters of varying size and export experience. As it stands, the pipeline has 35 potential export contracts that range from £3m to over £350m. Most importantly, the DLF pipeline is growing.<\/p>

Farnborough is an important showcase for the UK aerospace sector. The Department does not make estimates of aerospace exports arising as a result of the Farnborough Airshow. However, given the UK\u2019s position as a leading supplier to the world\u2019s aerospace industry, our industry is likely to be a major beneficiary of many of the new orders announced at the Show.<\/ins><\/p> Recent data from the Aerospace Defence and Security trade association show aerospace exports grew by 12% in 2013 to £25 billion.<\/ins><\/p> <\/p>"}

For a detailed assessment of EMR, including cost-benefit analysis and consumer bill impacts, please refer to the Delivery Plan Impact Assessment1.<\/p> The Electricity Market Reform Delivery Plan2 set out strike prices for renewable technologies for the period 2014/15 to 2018/19. They provide a basis for renewable electricity to achieve at least 30 per cent of generation by 2020, in line with the EU renewables target. The generation mix beyond the period of the first Delivery Plan, from 1st April 2019, will be influenced by how individual technologies develop in the coming decade. We are committed to maximising value for money for consumers.<\/p> Chapter 6 of the Delivery Plan describes potential deployment requirements beyond 2020. It explores three levels of carbon intensity and three technology deployment scenarios as an illustration of a range of alternative pathways to meeting our post-2020 objective to reduce carbon emissions by at least 80% of 1990 levels by 2050. These scenarios are indicative: the electricity generation mix through the 2020s is unlikely to match any one of these scenarios exactly.<\/p> As an indicative estimate, the ranges of costs in the six scenarios set out in Chapter 6 of the Delivery Plan are shown in the table below3.
