Decision
Electricity transmission companies are incentivised under Special Condition 3C (Reliability Incentive Adjustment in Respect of Energy Not Supplied) of their Electricity Transmission Licences to minimise loss of supply to customers. Each year the Companies receive a financial reward or penalty in the form of an allowed revenue adjustment (Reliability Incentive Adjustment) based on the total volume of Energy Not Supplied to customers connected to their network. The size of the reward of penalty is calculated based on how the company performed against an annual Energy Not Supplied volume target (measured in MWh).
If the company feels that a loss of supply was caused by an event beyond its reasonable control then it may make a case to the Authority for the event to be designated an Exceptional Event and for all or some of the Energy Not Supplied during the event to be excluded when we calculate its revenue reward or penalty.
This letter sets out the Authority’s intention to issue a direction in relation to SHE Transmission’s claim for an Energy Not Supplied Exceptional Event on its network on 8 January 2015.
The Authority is satisfied that the event is an Exceptional Event and proposes to issue a direction to exclude 63.80 MWh related to the event when calculating SHE Transmission’s Reliability Incentive Adjustment.
