Consultation description
We are consulting on proposed modifications to the:
- RIIO-ED2 Price Control Financial Model (PCFM)
- RIIO-ED2 Price Control Financial Handbook (PCFH)
The modifications to the RIIO ED2 Price Control Financial Instruments we are proposing are:
- the addition of a new pass‑through term to the ED2 PCFM to enable recovery of costs associated with connections reform
- the addition of a new paragraph to Chapter 7 (Pensions) of the ED2 PCFH setting out the procedure to be followed where the pensions model calculations indicate an expected surplus
These proposed modifications address issues raised through the ED2 Price Control Financial Model Working Group.
