As part of the new ESO regulatory and incentives framework from 1 April 2018, the ESO is required to engage with its stakeholders to produce a Forward Plan before the start of each regulatory year.
The ESO published its final Forward Plan on 28 March 2019 following consultation with stakeholders.
We have reviewed the ESO Forward Plan 2019-21 and the stakeholder responses the ESO received as part of its consultation and have provided our view of whether the Forward Plan meets our expectations.
The ESO Forward Plan covers 2019-20 and 2020-2021. This letter outlines Ofgem’s Formal Opinion of the ESO’s Forward Plan 2019-20.
