In this episode, Sam Hollister speaks to Bertalan Gyenes, Power Modelling Consultant at LCP Delta, and David Edmonds, Head of Portfolio Pricing at EDF Energy, about the growing impact of wind cannibalisation on the GB power market. As renewable generation continues to increase, periods of high wind output are pushing wholesale electricity prices lower, creating new challenges for investors, developers and offtakers. Together, they explore how these market dynamics are reshaping power purchase agreements (PPAs), influencing investment decisions, and raising important questions for future market design.
