On 29 June 2015 Ofgem published a draft of the ‘Offtaker of Last Resort (OLR): Essential guide for suppliers’ for consultation. We published the guidance in draft form to seek views from stakeholders on how we proposed to administer the OLR scheme as well as the clarity of the guidance and associated templates. The consultation period closed on 10 August 2015.

We have reviewed all responses and, where appropriate, have updated the guidance document accordingly. The final version of the guidance document was published on 30 September 2015. As a result of this consultation we have also published a complementary handbook which provides suppliers with instructions on how to use the Ofgem Tendering Portal.
