Scotland and Wales press Westminster on offshore wind support

1. What: UK energy minister Michael Shanks warned at the Global Offshore Wind conference that price will be the "absolute central factor" for Allocation Round 8 (AR8) CfD bidding, with AR8 brought forward and no guarantee of repeating AR7’s doubled budget. 2. Who: The UK government (Michael Shanks and Treasury), RenewableUK forum participants, developers and supply‑chain actors including Vestas, ScottishPower Renewables, Ocean Winds, NESO, and policy voices such as the Tony Blair Institute. 3. Impact: Stricter cost tests in AR8 will pressure strike prices and project margins, risking reduced UK supply‑chain investment (e.g., factory decisions, jobs created under AR7), increasing boom‑and‑bust risk from irregular auction timing and heightening uncertainty for Scottish projects over transmission/connection and CfD/leasing outcomes.
