Original consultation

Consultation description

This document, which is part consultation and part call for input, forms part of our wider work developing the methodology we should apply for ED3. It considers the role(s) that Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) could meaningfully play in supporting the necessary rollout of various low carbon technologies and energy efficiency measures in homes across GB.   

Responses to this consultation will inform our decision-making process in relation to the ED3 price control. In particular, responses will inform our decision on whether to pursue a subsequent consultation on the details of future pilots of an Expanded Role. 

Who should respond

We would like views from stakeholders with an interest in the regulation of energy networks as well as from groups representing consumers of electricity. For this consultation we are also interested in the views of the wider energy sector, whether that be energy retailers, innovators or installers of energy efficiency measures or low carbon technologies. We would also welcome responses from other stakeholders and the public.
