  • WP 1702 Capacity Market
    The development of the Capacity Market for electricity in Great Britain Matthew Lockwood EPG Working Paper: 1702 Abstract: A Capacity Market (CM) for electricity was introduced in Great Britain in the early 2010s, with the first auctions being held in 2014. The CM has been controversial in its design and effects. In particular it has been seen as benefitting existing, often high-carbon, capacity and large incumbent generators, rather than new entrants and technologies, such as demand side response. More broadly, it is seen by some as working against, rather than for, the development of a low-carbon flexible future energy system. This paper traces the development of the Capacity Market as a policy process, with a particular focus on the influence of incumbents in that development. It is based on interviews with participants in and close observers of that process, and on a close reading of the policy process documentation, such as consultation submissions. The study of corporate influence in this case is complicated by the confluence of incumbent interests and political incentives facing government actors to keep the lights on. In the main decisions regarding the CM, including the decision to adopt a mechanism in the first place, and in deciding to have a market-wide approach, the incumbent lobby was split. However, in both these cases, the government’s decisions were in line with the wishes of, and used the arguments of the majority of incumbents. There is also evidence that incumbents lobbied effectively against a more supportive design of the CM for demand side response providers.

In addition to that 24-hour-a-day service commitment, the gas, water, wastewater, electricity and waste management industries also form the largest single contributor towards the infrastructure ambitions of all four UK Governments. Over half of the National Infrastructure Delivery Plan (NIDP) is attributed solely to our sector, and without the products of those investments – power, light, fresh drinking water, safe sanitation, waste removal, environmental protection and recycling – the remainder of that plan is simply unable to be delivered. We are proud of the pivotal role we play for our customers and society and recognise our place in building the future prosperity for the UK.
