answer text <p>Community energy schemes can already supply local markets provided they hold a supply licence (or exemption) or have a partnership with a licensed supplier.</p><p>In recognition that existing routes may not meet the needs of every community scheme, the Government has established a Local Supply Working Group to identify key regulatory barriers and suggest solutions. An update on the Local Supply Working Group will be included in the Community Energy Strategy update that will be published in March 2014.</p> more like this

answer text <p>I refer my hon.

Although this does not relate directly to the Capacity Market, Ofgem intend to implement changes to cash out ahead of 2018/19:</p><p><a href="https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/ofgem-publications/87782/electricitybalancingsignificantcodereview-finalpolicydecision.pdf" target="_blank">https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/ofgem-publications/87782/electricitybalancingsignificantcodereview-finalpolicydecision.pdf</a>.</p><p>It is likely that expected changes to the Price Average Reference will already have been factored into Capacity Market auction bids.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Under their Electricity Balancing Significant Code Review, Ofgem have committed to implementing a move to a 1MWh Price Average Reference (PAR) measure by 2018/19, the first delivery year by the Capacity Market:</p><p><a href="https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/ofgem-publications/87782/electricitybalancingsignificantcodereview-finalpolicydecision.pdf" target="_blank">https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/ofgem-publications/87782/electricitybalancingsignificantcodereview-finalpolicydecision.pdf</a>.</p><p>It is therefore expected that this modification has been already factored into Capacity Market auction bids, by current and potential future participants.</p><p>Other things being equal, a more cost-reflective wholesale electricity price would be expected to lower bids in the CM; greater revenues earned through the electricity market would offset revenues sought via the Capacity Market. Please see Ofgem’s Impact Assessment on implementation of EBSCR changes for further details:</p><p><a href="https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/ofgem-publications/87787/electricitybalancingsignificantcodereview-finalpolicydecisionimpactassessment.pdf" target="_blank">https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/ofgem-publications/87787/electricitybalancingsignificantcodereview-finalpolicydecisionimpactassessment.pdf</a>.</p>
