Following the implementation of the Transmission Price Control Review (TPCR) project, National Grid Gas (NGG) faced two new licence conditions with respect to planning and modelling the network as part of its investment planning methodology for the National Transmission System (NTS).
The network planning review will result in a Transmission Planning Code which should provide greater transparency and clarity to the system users and other stakeholders about NGG's approach to investment planning. The review will explore options for potential reform of the present methodologies used by NGG for investment planning. This work is intended to improve the quality of information available and, inform the framework of analysis for future price control reviews.
