We are inviting views on a proposal to modify the National Grid Plc Gas (NGG) Transporter Licence (“the licence”). We are proposing to amend all references in the licence to ‘Gas Deficit Warning’ (GDW) with ‘Gas Balancing Notification’ (GBN), to align the licence with the Uniform Network Code (UNC).

This follows our dicision to approve UNC modification 685, raised by NGG to amend the name of GDW to GBN. The meaning of the newly-named term GBN is identical to the current term GDW.

Responses to this statutory consultation should be submitted by email on or before 13 November 2019.
