ED2 Weighted average cost of capital (WACC) model
Reports, plans and updates
The RIIO-2 Price Control includes an allowance for the licensee’s estimated Weighted average cost of capital (WACC). This is calculated under the provisions of the ED2 Price Control Financial Handbook.
We use a model to calculate the cost of debt and risk-free rate values which are inputs into the ED2 Price Control Financial Model. We update these values annually as part of the Annual Iteration Process. This re-calculates allowed revenue values under the ED2 Price Control.
We have published the model under section 4.31 of the ED2 Price Control Financial Handbook.
