Administrative Strike Price, Maxima, and Minima

The CfD Allocation Regulations stipulate that BEIS must issue a Budget Notice for each Allocation Round setting out the overall budget for each delivery year, Administrative Strike Prices (ASPs) and any maxima or minima that may apply. BEIS publishes a Draft Budget Notice in advance of the Final Budget Notice.

This dataset takes the ASP data of each Technology type per year and the relevant Maxima/Minima from these publications:-
