We are consulting on proposed Distribution Network Operator (DNO) licence requirements to maintain asset registers which support data exchange.
Consultation description
In the Clean Flexibility Roadmap, we committed to consult on new DNO licence requirements to maintain asset registers which support data exchange to improve asset visibility, which this consultation sets out.
We are seeking views on how DNOs store and share asset registration data, and the case for change for improving DNO asset registration.
We are also seeking views on the four options we have identified for delivering a common approach to DNO asset registration.
Who should respond
We would like views from people with an interest in asset visibility and particularly welcome responses from:
- DNOs
- National Energy System Operator (NESO)
- Elexon
- flexibility service providers
