In RIIO-T1 we introduced an uncertainty mechanism in order to provide more time for NGGT to develop its approach in response to the Industrial Emissions Directive, which was a new legislation. This would ensure that funding was matched to the needs case and improved deliverability by better alignment of funding with actual project expenditure.
We received NGGT’s submission on 15 May 2015, under Special Condition 5E of NGGT’s gas transporter licence for the uncertain cost category of Industrial emissions. We have assessed its submission and we seek your views on our proposals.
