Market Price is the generation-weighted Intermittent Market Reference Price (IMRP) published by LCCC, in current prices. CfD strike prices are quoted in 2012 prices but settled at a CPI-indexed value, so the Indexed Strike shown here is derived from the actual settlement: IMRP + (CfD Payment ÷ MWh). This project's stated strike is £119.89/MWh in its allocation round price base. Hover the Indexed Strike for the indexation factor. Net to Generator is what the generator effectively receives per MWh after the CfD top-up or payback.
