The Joint Venture: UK subsidy-free renewables development with Gowling WLG and Capital Dynamics

In the first of two special episodes of the Joint Venture podcast in partnership with law firm Gowling WLG, our attention turns to the development of UK subsidy-free renewables projects

In a conversation with Gowling WLG's Gareth Baker, and Barney Coles from renewables investor Capital Dynamics, we take stock of the current state of the market, how Covid-19 has affected ways of working, as well as how the lockdown had impacted electricity prices and the knock-on consequences for projects' business cases. 

We also assessed the tantalising prospect of the return of solar and onshore wind to the UK's contracts for difference support framework, and what that might mean for developers and investors who might have given up entirely on ever being able to access that revenue stream again after several years of having to operate without it.
