Heat networks regulation: consumer protection

Guidance for the consumer protection rules and requirements set out in our heat network authorisation conditions.

Details

This guidance relates to: 

  • Standards of Conduct
  • quality of service
  • billing and transparency
  • back-billing
  • heat supply contracts
  • protections for vulnerable consumers
  • security of supply

It is relevant mostly for heat network suppliers and operators of domestic consumers but also includes some guidance relating to non-domestic supplier and operator requirements. 

Heat network suppliers and operators are responsible for keeping up to date with the latest version of their requirements.
