P272 and P322, and Elective

We are continuing to work with ELEXON and the Performance Assurance Board to monitor suppliers’ performance in meeting their obligations under P272, and ensure the swift migration of outstanding sites.

The final elective HHS changes went live on 29 June 2017. This means that the full package of changes to enable cost-effective elective HHS is now in place. We are now continuing to monitor the implementation of elective HHS

Please note that responsibility within Ofgem for P272 and P322, and Elective have now been handed over to our Smart Metering team. Please address any future queries on these matter to the Smart Metering team at smartmetering@ofgem.gov.uk.
