In November 2024, we published our insights on President Trump's reelection and its implications for the Global Energy Sector. We explored potential outcomes, from Global LNG prices to tariffs and changes in Cost of Capital. Looking ahead to Monday's inauguration, we created a part 2 document, in which we shift focus to the domestic energy sector under the new administration, analyzing changes in affordability, sustainability, and reliability. While the media has spotlighted the durability of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), numerous other policies and court rulings will shape energy policy over the next four years. We detail each policy path, its background, and the likelihood of implementation, considering political and business interests. This evolving landscape presents both risks and opportunities for market participants navigating policy changes.

€840 million has been saved on the power bills of Irish consumers thanks to renewables, from 2000-2023. This is just one of the findings from Good for your Pocket: How renewable energy helps Irish electricity consumers, commissioned by Wind Energy Ireland. Read to discover how continued investment in wind and solar farms could reduce bills by €610 million per year, if the national target of 80% renewable electricity is achieved.

Deployment of drones by Network Rail and the British Transport Police could generate total benefits of up to £593m from 2024 to 2035 by reducing delay time to passengers, payments by Network Rail to train operators for delays and speeding up police response time to incidents with less risk, and environmental impact.

Drone deliveries could result in millions of pounds in cost savings and alleviate pressure on the UK’s healthcare system. We estimate that such interventions could save the NHS a total of 2.65 million hours of delivery time and £42.9m in operational costs from 2027 to 2035. Additionally, drone deliveries could reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 16.6m kg CO2e from 2024 to 2035, which is valued at £1.57m.

𝗖𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗧-𝟰 𝗖𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗔𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗤𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 With the next T-4 Capacity Market auction approaching in March, there’s much to dissect. Let’s explore some of the key dynamics shaping the auction and what might influence outcomes. Reach out if you are interested in our analysis on this. The demand target has been set at 44GW, with 48.7GW pre-qualified or conditionally pre-qualified - a higher margin above the target than in last year’s auction at this stage, but a greater proportion of BESS and DSR. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗲?  In a central scenario we think it could clear in the £50s, but this is very sensitive to potential changes in the demand target or pre-qual capacity. 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆: 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗶𝗻, 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 The prequalified capacity gives us a first glance at the auction, but there’s always room for movement. DSR and BESS are key technologies to watch as we approach the auction. 𝗗𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗨𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘆: 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝟰𝟰 𝗚𝗪? NESO and DESNZ will need to decide whether to adjust the demand target to reflect developments since last July. In particular, EDF’s announcement that it intends to extend the life of Heysham 2 and Torness could prompt a reduction in the target, but the termination of the Capacity Agreement for the 776 MW Eggborough CCGT unit 2 could result in an increase. These two combined could see a c. 1.7 GW net reduction of the demand target. There is also continued uncertainty over the future of the 3GW of biomass conversion capacity whose RO and CfD support finishes in March 2027. The Government consulted on transitional support arrangements for this technology a year ago, but is yet to confirm whether support will be provided. 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆 𝗕𝗶𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝘆𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗰𝘀: 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗲? Changes to the demand target likely bring additional focus into parts of the curve where bidding dynamics have not been revealed in recent auctions i.e (£25 - £60/kW). Price-setting likely hinges on the interplay between: • Batteries: Costs, revenue expectations and volatility. • DSR: Deliverability, risk • New unabated gas: Cost to build and finance, electricity demand. • Existing CCGTs and refurbs: Fixed costs, decarbonisation, extension and financing costs, will refurbishing generators exit or take a one year if their threshold is not met? We will continue to unpack these dynamics as the register evolves and final auction parameters are announced. 𝗣𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗼𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘂𝘀.
