United KingdomEnergy and Natural Resources

The Renewable Energy Sources Amendment Act was published in the Journal of Laws on 14 August 2019 (the “Amendment”). It introduces a number of significant changes to the Renewable Energy Sources Act of 20 February 2015 (the “RES Act”), and other acts – especially the Energy Law Act of 10 April 1997 (the “Energy Law”) and the Wind Power Investments Act of 20 May 2016 (the “Distance Act”)

The Amendment will enter into force on 29 August 2019, with the proviso that some provisions will enter into force on 1 January 2020. The more significant changes to the auction system are suspended until the European Commission’s approval (flagged below as “temporarily suspended”). The material changes regarding the auction system are discussed below.
