answer text

The Electricity Generation Cost report outlines the ‘levelised cost’ of onshore wind. The levelised cost is a guide to the overall costs for the lifetime of an onshore wind project; by contrast, the cost estimates in the Hinkley Point C value for money assessment are ‘Strike Price Comparators’ which are not equivalent to levelised cost. In the value for money assessment, to make the levelised cost more comparable to the HPC Strike Price under the CfD contract, several adjustments were made: these included accounting for the lost generation from the transmission system, the cost of land and the relative difference in system balancing costs of onshore wind compared to nuclear. In addition, the running hours of onshore wind have been taken from a specific scenario where onshore wind was pursued in the absence of the HPC project.
