The Capacity Market Auction is the competitive process to award Capacity Market Agreements to meet the target capacity for the relevant Delivery Year. Only Capacity Market Units (CMUs) which have successfully Prequalified and where necessary, confirmed entry, will be able to take part. See the process flow below for the required activities.
Prequalified applicants carry out activities including, but not limited to: participating in a practice Auction, webinar and training; optimizing bidding companies and reviewing the Register.
Eligible applicants should complete activities relevant to their CMU type such as confirmation of entry, max obligation period and DSR bidding capacity.
Applicants will take part in the Mock Auction. This is also an opportunity to review the data, test Auction system credentials and learn about the Auction system.
Bidders will take part in the main Auction.
Final Auction Results are published 8 working days after the Auction clears. The CANs are then released 20 working days later.
