The cap is expected to increase by £209 over the current cap due to “prices [remaining] elevated throughout the observation window” following events that have affected the global economy, such as the war in the Middle East.

🔋Key Insights from Renewables Procurement and Revenue Summit Series 2026 The UK is facing a power pricing challenge, currently the highest among IEA countries and 60% above the median. So how can offtakers navigate this volatile landscape? At this week's Renewables Procurement & Revenue 2026 summit in London, industry leaders from Philips and Heathrow Airport shared critical strategies: 💡 Active hedging is non-negotiable "Having an active hedging strategy is important, especially in times like these," says Yassine Bounajma, category sourcing manager at Philips. The key? Taking hedging decisions in-house with clear objectives. 📚 Build in-house expertise Understanding the full cost structure, especially non-commodity components is essential. Philips established a global energy committee to regularly discuss strategy, hedging, and make-versus-buy decisions. "Building out the in-house expertise is really key in a company," Bounajma emphasised. 🎯 Accept imperfection Simon Wilding from Heathrow Airport offered a refreshing perspective: "You've got to get comfortable with getting it wrong, because you're going to get it wrong." Buying power in today's UK market is "an art, not a science." 🌍 The bigger picture The Middle East crisis has transformed renewables from a "political ESG manifestation" to a serious energy security contributor, according to Gus Majed, CEO of Paratus Group. While this transition brings volatility, the long-term outlook for renewables is increasingly bullish. The bottom line: High power prices create immediate competitiveness challenges for UK industry. Success requires robust hedging strategies, deep internal expertise, and the resilience to learn from sub-optimal decisions. What strategies is your organisation using to navigate today's energy market?
