What is the Capacity Market?

The Capacity Market has been introduced by the UK Government as part of the Electricity Market Reform Programme to ensure the future security of our electricity supply. The Capacity Market offers all capacity providers a steady, predictable revenue stream on which they can base their future investments. In return for such revenue, providers must deliver energy at times of system stress or face penalties.
