Decision to update RIIO-2 Gas Network Vulnerability and Carbon Monoxide Allowance (VCMA) Governance Document. As part of our continued focus on consumers in Vulnerable Situations, we have implemented a vulnerability and carbon monoxide awareness use-it or lose-it allowance (UIOLI) within RIIO-GD2.
The VCMA provides UIOLI funding for Gas Distribution Networks (GDNs) to utilise on VCMA Projects focused on vulnerability and carbon monoxide (CO) safety initiatives that go beyond activities that are funded through other price control mechanisms or required through licence obligations. The total VCMA allowance is £171m.
