What is EMR? The Government s Electricity Market Reform programme is aimed at attracting up to 100bn investment needed to transform the sector. EMR includes: Contracts for Difference (CFD) scheme to support investment in new low carbon generation (replacing the existing Renewables Obligation) and Capacity Market scheme to facilitate security of supply. DECC created two companies to help deliver these schemes: Low Carbon Contracts Company Ltd (LCCC) and Electricity Settlements Company Ltd (ESC) 8

About LCCC Low Carbon Contracts Company is a governmentowned company established to be the independent counterparty to private law contracts known as EMR CFDs. CFD Counterparty LCCC is also committed to working in partnership with EMR delivery partners and industry to oversee the delivery of the end-to-end CFD scheme, facilitating: - Delivery Partner Cooperation and - Industry Readiness LCCC also runs Capacity Market settlement operations on behalf of the Electricity Settlements Company.

CFDs designed to provide long-term price certainty for low-carbon technologies CFDs pay a variable top-up to developers, based on: Strike Price: Estimate of the cost of investing in each technology Reference Price: Measure of the average price of electricity Source: DECC Introduction to EMR for New Suppliers 22 July 2015 13
Stages of CFD process Key feature of a CFD is that it is allocated early in the project development life-cycle CFD process reflects this. Source: DECC 14
Roles and Responsibilities under the CFD scheme DECC sets policy, auction rules, terms, key parameters (e.g. budget, qualification criteria etc) and the operational costs levy rate for the Low Carbon Contracts Company National Grid (EMR Delivery Body) runs application and allocation processes, and provides analysis to support the setting of strike prices Ofgem Ensures Delivery Body activities are efficient, cost effectively and timely, and determines eligibility disputes Low Carbon Contracts Company is the CFD Counterparty, managing contracts and the Supplier Obligation that funds CFD payments EMR Settlement Ltd manages settlement operations on LCCC s behalf. Other Outsourced Delivery e.g. meter verification and fuel monitoring. 15
CFD Counterparty role Forecasting CFD payments, and setting Supplier Obligation interim rate and reserve Signing and managing the lifecycle of CFDs and Investment Contracts Managing settlement process including collecting payments from Suppliers to pass on to Generators and viceversa when required. Established as an independent counterparty to increase investor confidence in CFDs LCCC s Guiding Principle is to maintain investor confidence in the CFD scheme and minimise costs to consumers 16

Forecasting the Supplier Levy Supplier Stakeholder event 22 July 15 Andrew Miller and Harold Anuta, LCCC Forecasting Team
Agenda 1. Introduction Meet the team Overview of Supplier Obligations Overview of LCCC Forecasting Team 2. More about the Supplier Obligation 3. The Transparency Tool 4. Key dates 5. Longer Term Outlook 22/07/2015 27
Introduction: Meet the team Andrew Miller Head of Forecasting 20+ years in electricity industry MSc Renewables & PhD plasma physics Harold Anuta, Forecasting Analyst PhD candidate in energy storage Industry consultancy background Emily Lewis, Forecasting Analyst MSc in finance Previously at Centrica mid and downstream roles 22/07/2015 28
Introduction: Overview of Supplier Obligations Contracts for Differences key part of Electricity Market Reform designed to support low carbon generators Paid for by a levy on suppliers Based on initial payments (reserve and interim rate) and later reconciliations Rate set quarterly, 3 months in advance, with ability for LCCC to raise in period adjustments if required Supplier payments: Interim levy rate & Reserve payments Supplier levy reconciliation LCCC Credit requirements (cash or letter of credit) Payments to generators with CFDs Note in some cases generators pay us 22/07/2015 29
Introduction: Role of forecasting 1. Regulations require we set an Interim Levy Rate and Total Reserve Amount each quarter, at a level giving a 19 in 20 confidence that LCCC will have sufficient money to pay 2. Regulations therefore imply we must make probabilistic forecasts taking into account the uncertainties regarding CFD payments Levy setting 3. Also need to take into account the flow of cash considering the payment timing Cash monitoring 4. We need to continually re-forecast within period to check we are still likely to be able to pay 5. We also plan to produce longer term forecasts to give suppliers a longer term view of likely obligations in future quarters Advanced warning 22/07/2015 30
Agenda 1. Introduction 2. Supplier obligation (SO) Main drivers of uncertainty How we deal with uncertainty Process Forecasting The reserve 3. Transparency tool 4. Key dates 5. Longer term outlook 22/07/2015 31
SO: What are the main drivers of uncertainty? SO Levy ( /MWh) = (StrikePrice ( /MWh) MarketReferencePrice /MWh ) Generation (MWh) Total Eligible Demand (MWh) Market reference prices: 1. Baseload (eg biomass) 2. Intermittent (eg wind or solar) both dependent on market prices Generation 1. Wind very uncertain day to day 2. Solar uncertain hour to hour 3. Biomass reasonably certain unless there is an unplanned outage 22/07/2015 32
SO: Dealing with uncertainty Market reference prices Spectron* power prices Industry standard volatility model Wind generation Sampled from historic wind speeds Use NASA MERRA** data set for UK Solar data Sampled from historic sunshine hours Use met office data from across UK All input into Supplier Obligation Forecasting Model (SOFM) Montecarlo*** Simulation Model Typically run with 5000-10000 simulations *Spectron is a leading commodities broker and has a leading position in GB power market ** The MERRA data includes worldwide wind speeds at defined longitude latitude and height and is made available free of charge by NASA *** Montecarlo simulation is a standard industry approach to assessing the impact of uncertainty 22/07/2015 33
SO Process Explained An overview of the levy rate/reserve setting process Forecast for ILR and TRA ILR and TRA recommends Board approves Start of 3 rd month in quarter (Dec/Mar/June/Sept) ILR and TRA sent to EMRS Notices to suppliers By end of Dec/Mar/June/Sept EMRS calculates Reserve share ILR and supplier reserve LCCC will updated the transparency tool and may well also issue a supplier briefing at this time 22/07/2015 34
Agenda 1. Introduction 2. More about the supplier obligation 3. The Transparency Tool Purpose of the tool View of current tool Intended development 4. Key dates 5. Longer Term Outlook 22/07/2015 35
Transparency Tool Remit 1. We have developed this Transparency Tool, consulting closely with experts from our Working Groups, in order to provide our stakeholders with insight into our assumptions and calculations. Requires access via LCCC Site 2. Purpose is to give visibility of the calculations supporting the Interim Levy Rate and Total Reserve Amount Confidence for suppliers that the calculations are correct Understanding of the generation assumptions in the model Understanding of the uncertainty 3. We intend to add additional functionality further to the aims of transparency in the near future 22/07/2015 36
Transparency Tool: current view 22/07/2015 37

Key dates in 2015 Date Next 2-3 weeks Event Forecasts of ILR and TRA for Jan-Mar 2016, Apr-June 2016 and July-Sept 2016 and reconciled (zero) rates for Apr-June 15 published (anticipated) By 30 September Set ILR and TRA for Jan-Mar 2016 Forecasts of ILR and TRA for Apr-June 2016, July-Sept 2016 and Oct-Dec 2016 (anticipated) 7 October Suppliers receive reconciliation payment from Apr-June 2015 (return of reserve amount); 9 October Reconciliation statement from July-Sept 15 (zero anticipated) Reconciled (zero) rates for Apr-June 15 published By 31 December Set ILR and TRA for Apr-June 2016 Forecasts of ILR and TRA for July-Sept 2016 and Oct-Dec 2016, Jan-Mar 2017 (anticipated) 22/07/2015 39
Agenda 1. Introduction 2. More about the Supplier Obligation 3. The Transparency Tool 4. Key dates 5. Longer term outlook Why forecast? Principles of forecasting Way forward 22/07/2015 40
Longer term outlook: way forward 1. Forecasting refresh intend to refresh forecasts quarterly in line with setting the rate and reserve for a new quarterly obligation period Look at appropriate base case and sensitivities on a case-by-case basis 2. Looking for feedback on how we present the forecasts Transparency expert group 10 September 3. Welcome feedback on whether suppliers would appreciate a webinar once we start to get more certainty around CFD start dates for some generators 4. Also looking for feedback on other transparency issues 5. Feedback! Please email us at forecasting@lowcarboncontracts.uk 22/07/2015 41
