We have updated our policy view on the GB gas transmission charging regime in light of the European Network Code on gas transmission tariffs (TAR NC). Subject to the Uniform Network Code (UNC) consultation process, our current view is that we would support:
- Introduction of ‘floating payable prices’ for NTS entry and exit capacity.
- The cessation of commodity charges for the purpose of managing under- and over-recovery of transmission services revenue at all points.
- Setting the price of interruptible capacity (including off peak capacity) at all entry and exit points to reflect the probability of interruption.
- Reduction of reserve price discounts for short-term capacity products at all NTS entry and exit points.
