Energy weekly highlights—10 April 2025

This week's edition of Energy weekly highlights includes: a News Analysis on the Court of Session's ruling on the development of the Rosebank and Jackdaw oil and gas fields, declaring the consents granted for development as unlawful. We also cover several announcements from Ofgem, including: (1) the opening of the first application window for Long Duration Electricity Storage (LDES) projects under the cap and floor subsidy regime; (2) finalising the Electricity (Early-Model Competitive Tenders for Onshore Transmission Licences) Regulations 2025, which establish a legislative framework for competitive tendering in onshore electricity transmission projects and the granting of Competitively Appointed Transmission Owner (CATO) licences; and (3) the launch of a second consultation on energy code governance reform, seeking feedback on its implementation proposals pursuant to the Energy Act 2023 (EnA 2023). In addition this week, the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) announced that 27 electrolytic (green) hydrogen production projects across England, Scotland, and Wales have been shortlisted for the next stage of the Second Hydrogen Allocation Round (HAR2), which involves further due diligence and cost assessment exercises before the successful projects are selected. Finally, the National Energy System Operator (NESO) has outlined the Centralised Strategic Network Plan (CSNP) to co-ordinate long-term transmission network planning in Great Britain, focusing initially on electricity and later including gas and hydrogen.
