Here are the climate-related sections of speeches by MPs during the Commons debate Draft Contracts for Difference (Allocation) (Amendment) Regulations 2026.
Edward Morello (Liberal Democrat)
The Liberal Democrats support reforms that strengthen and improve the operation of the CfD scheme and accelerate the transition to cleaner and cheaper renewable energy. We will continue to support the expansion of fixed-price renewable contracts to break the link between electricity prices and gas prices, but although we support the draft regulations, we believe that further reforms of the CfD framework should be considered, including extending the lifetime of CfD contracts from 15 to 25 years, and moving all older renewables obligation contracts on to the CfD scheme.
