Details

The Green Gas Support Scheme (GGSS) has several mechanisms to manage the budget and ensure value for money, while maintaining investor confidence to encourage deployment. These were set out in the government response to our consultation.

This document provides more detail for applicants and investors on:

  • the budget cap setting methodology
  • the degression process
  • the Annual Tariff Review

See also details of the Green Gas Levy (GGL), which will fund the GGSS.
