On 29 March, BEIS published a consultation seeking views on the removal of Feed in Tariff (FIT) and Contracts for Difference (CfD) scheme cost exemptions for green imported electricity and the recognition of EU Guarantees of Origin (GoOs) in GB altogether.
Our ‘Chart of the week’ shows historic GoO imports as recognised by Ofgem, the total number of REGOs redeemed to Ofgem by electricity suppliers, and the total number REGOs retired (i.e. essentially used overseas). It also shows, for comparison sake, the total UK renewables generation as reported by BEIS each year.
