Electricity Transmission Licence

We are consulting on proposed modifications to electricity transmission licences to implement onshore electricity transmission competition policy. This is focused on the RIIO-T1 price control period.

The policy decisions informing the proposed licence modifications are set out in a decision document which is published alongside the consultation.

The proposed modifications encompass the following areas: project identification (the process by which assets meeting the requisite tender criteria will be identified and assessed); tender commencement (the process by which a tender may be commenced); tender support (how licensees are to prepare for and support a tender); and conflict mitigation (how licensees are expected to mitigate conflicts of interest in connection with a tender). 

The status of this consultation has been changed to “Closed (with decision)” as the consultation period has passed. For more information, please see our consultation policy.
