I think they are now prioritising and tidal may be left somewhat.

I would say at face value it is not good?

Yes. But do you really understand the potential impact?

Updated...
Contracts for Difference: Stakeholder Bulletin 19 December 2022 Consultation on proposed changes to the CfD contracts for Allocation Round 5. The government has today opened a consultation seeking views on proposed changes to the Contracts for Difference (CfD) scheme Standard Terms and Conditions and Private Network Agreement for Allocation Round 5. The consultation covers changes to: • Clarify how the flexibility in the contract for generators to delay their CfD start date should (and should not) be used; • Simplify data provision requirements for generators; • Update definitions in the CFD Private Network Agreement to ensure they align fully with regulations; • Update interest rate calculations for repaying cumulated subsidy following the UK’s exit from the EU; • Remove BSUoS (Balancing Services Use of System) charge clauses, reflecting Ofgem’s decision that these charges will no longer be levied on generators; • Reflect new supply chain plan requirements for floating offshore wind projects The consultation will close on 5 February 2023.

Quiet here again after all twits have fekked off

@wynbag.
Not many want to hear from you so have a nice Christmas and look not forward to your sermons.....sorry message in 2023.

Please expand as I did not read it like that. It does not give specifics.
Also the fee £60k. Hmm not knocking me over with confidence?

It is very grey and not black and white hence not sure.

Please see full info from link below.

BUSINESS & FINANCE

The contract for consulting services – worth around £65,000 – has been awarded to Baldock Energy, a company with technical understanding of the tidal stream sector combined with sufficient experience and knowledge about the industry.

Baldock Energy will be tasked with providing technical advice services related to the investments in the MeyGen project for a period of three years, starting from late November 2022, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the subsequent agreement, according to the Scottish public bodies which hired the consultant.

The company is led by Andy Baldock, who has more than 20 years of experience in renewable energy sector, with a special focus on marine energy.

Baldock has been involved in almost all the key UK marine energy programs since 2004, including previous work on MeyGen tidal energy project, as the funders’ technical adviser for the UK’s Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) – formerly DECC – as well as for the Crown Estate Scotland, Scottish government, and Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE).

According to the contract, Baldock Energy will use the subcontractors in its core team for the project, including Blackfish Engineering for the design turbine, foundation and systems engineering; Morek for the marine operations, with back-up from Tadek if required; and Black & Veatch for resource and performance assessment and other general engineering. Also, Joe Hussey will act as assistant project manager.

The consultants will provide funders with technical advisor input during MeyGen project’s operational phase, which will cover the review of annual operating budget, including the underlying technical and operational assumptions for the ongoing budget

Make it 4.

Well well.
That worked and I really was not being rude actually for someone like you that is kind.

Regarding Avacta.
Fire away Wynbag...

Wynbore.

Is this making things up...
You bore people with your relentless obsession with believing that you are always constructive?

That is a fact not a IMO.

You relentlessly change the core subject of a chat to suit your narrative.

Again anyone please say yay or nay..

You predict things that are 99% Of the time may happen?

Yay or nay Board members.

You bore more than you enlighten?
Yay or Nay?

Your chartist background is based upon endless years of developing this yourself ...and not by using stock made excel spreadsheet that basically show you this...

A lite bite expected from that one.

Then finally.
You are subjective only in what you want.
Don't care about other opinions but your own. Disrespectful and quite the Lucifer of this board as you are to many just a twaat.

Nuff sed.
Wynbore. Have a nice Xmas and I hope a chart (rather big one) gets lodged up your sphincter for crimbo.

All the best.
STAY SAFE

PS. Walking so any typos- apols

I kind of agree with Mister Tidal.
The CFD pots are essential.

If not in with a chance of any government money then it will be goodbye Vienna.

I do feel however that there will be some money available for Tidal given that they got ring fenced last time.

I just have an inkling that the technology is required, needed and has its place.

We have wind wind wind etc but they cannot put their eggs in just a few basket and also you would like to think that between now and March there will be a lot of lobbying.

The technology works and there's lots more to go at with Meygen.

The government therefore have started backing tidal so when thie big push come from the Scottish Government and SNP then I think it will either gather pace or they consider ring fencing.

BTW all the above is my assumption to be fair like some others under water still ref investment.

Probably a chartist can come on here and tell us something else.

From the website of SAE.

MEYGEN PHASE 2 - 28MW

Status: Awarded CFD

The MeyGen project has been awarded a Contract For Difference (CFD) in Allocation Round 4 for 28MW at a strike price of £178.54/MWh with a target commissioning date of 2027. The project will be transformational for the tidal energy industry, delivering the world's first commercial scale tidal array and securing MeyGen as the home of tidal energy.

MEYGEN PHASE 3 - 52MW

Status: Consented and under development

MeyGen phase 3 will see the remainder of the consented project delivered. Given the award of 28MW in AR4 MeyGen has an additional consent for 52MW which is eligible to be bid into future CFD Allocation Rounds.

LETS WAIT AND SEE.

Was this also the same as last year as I do not recall the info being sent out stating it was ring fenced. The main bit is the following.

Tidal is in a pot and will get funding.

I do not see the issue Mister Tidal.

So a chartist and a scrutineer
Wynbag?

The ever seeing eye...

Why is it lazy?
What gives you the right to state that?
Who are you?
Hiding behind words?
Chart this, SP that.

Answer me a question Wynbore.
Are you invested?

Late March until we find out then.

It's a shame but water under the bridge as the 1st pot I s energy from waste how apt considering...
Priceless.

I for one enjoy reading your posts.
They do carry some assumption but they are good enough to look and evaluate what you explain and describe.

I am sure we are now at the point where news will drop in the next couple of weeks.

I feel optimistic.

Why not chart your complete ignorance to anyone but you.
Chart ignorance for Wyndrum and it will go off the scale because you are plain and simple lacking any personality or modicum of being honest.

You are and always will be an antagonistic ignorant and totally self important piece of..
.
Chart that. Disruptor.
