The Future of UK Landfill Gas Projects
The Renewable Obligation Certificates scheme is closing. For landowners, site owners and councils, the shift to Contracts for Difference redraws the economics of every site. This is the field guide.
Used by landfill gas site owners across the UK.
Six chapters. One clear answer to a complicated question.
Written for landfill gas site owners navigating their lease renegotiations.
ROCs explained
How the Renewables Obligation built two decades of renewable income and why it’s ending.
The CfD mechanism
Strike price vs market price, top-up payments, clawbacks, and the competitive auction process.
Worked scenarios
Two side-by-side examples showing how CfD payments flow when the market moves above and below strike.
What it means for landowners
Rental income exposure, hybrid agreements, and the risk to turnover-based payment structures.
Operator economics
Why market prices may not offset ROC losses and the knock-on effect on upgrades and maintenance.
Case studies
Wood Lane and Silent Valley: a precedent-setting ROC transfer and a SiteView360 historical payment deep-dive.
“The transfer of ROCs to site owners gives them significantly more leverage over their renewable assets.”
Travis Benn, Lumify Energy on the Silent Valley ROC transfer
We help landowners, site owners, and councils protect their renewable income.
From ROC accreditation transfers to grid connections and tender management, our Lumify advisory and SiteView360 services have unlocked hidden value at sites across the UK. Our work includes an unprecedented ROC transfer at Silent Valley and a full performance audit at Wood Lane.
