The cPPA is a national contract for the supply to NR of a target P50 volume of 63.8GWh per annum of renewable electricity for 15 years. The renewable electricity will be generated by a solar PV facility to be constructed, operated and maintained by the supplier. The solar PV facility will have a target installed capacity of 60 MWp ± 10%, with the supplier guaranteeing a minimum technical availability of 93%. The renewable electricity to be supplied to NR under the cPPA will be supplied on an "as available" basis using a sleeving arrangement with a third party licensed electricity supplier and the relevant volumes supplied will be utilised by NR's non-traction business (e.g. managed stations, offices and depots). Please note that certain of the core supplier requirements referred to above differ from those listed in the contract award notice published on 19 August 2022 as the core supplier requirements stated herein represent the final core supplier requirements in the executed cPPA entered into between NR and the supplier on 28 July 2022. The cPPA was made conditional on the supplier achieving a final investment decision (FID) by 31 March 2023 (FID Milestone Delivery Date). Following a series of successive, substantial and unforeseen rises in the European Central Bank (ECB) interest rates for Main Refinancing Operations (fixed rate tenders) over the period from 30 November 2021 to 12 May 2022, the underlying financial model supporting the original cPPA pricing could no longer produce a return on investment for the supplier to reach FID. Accordingly, the supplier has proposed, and NR has agreed to make, a revision to the total price of the cPPA that results in an increase of under 50%, from £53.32 million to £79.80 million. The price increase involves the ECB interest rates increasing from 0% in November 2021 to 3.75% in May 2023.. There will also be a new FID Milestone Delivery Date of 30 September 2023 in the revised cPPA. NR is revising the cPPA through a variation agreement. The revision of the cPPA by NR is a permitted modification under the UCR. It is permitted by the exemption in Regulation 88(1)(c). For completeness, and to maximise transparency, NR will also publish a modification notice under Regulation 88(2) in due course after the variation agreement is entered into.
