Clean electricity What is the most cost-effective way to deploy renewables and storage into the electricity system and reduce overall system costs? For example, should variable renewable generators face the costs of extra flexibility needed to accommodate them onto the system, such as through making CfD generators more responsive to market signals, or should we address wider system costs elsewhere, outside of the CfD regime (e.g. through higher curtailment and balancing costs)?
