The Requirement for Generators (RfG) network code sets out the technical requirements that all future new electricity generators must adhere to. The RfG allows generator manufacturers to apply for their generator technology to be classified as an ‘emerging technology’. New generators connected to the network that are classified as an ‘emerging technology’ will not have to comply with the requirements introduced as a result of the RfG.
