22 Our proposal for change Immediate priority areas needing to be progressed in the short term These areas need to be considered in the next two-three years Already being progressed Strong interaction with Ofgem s core scope These areas need to be considered in a longer time horizon Long term vision considerations Long term stakeholder forum Quick Wins Industry Reform TODAY Develop and implement long-term vision Stakeholder Forum 2 Years Time

23 Flexibility Call for Evidence Jon Wisdom

24 Flexibility Call for Evidence Ofgem and BEIS jointly published the Call for Evidence on the 10 th November. Requests views and evidence in relation to a smarter more flexible energy system Responses requested by 10 th January 2017.

25 Key points for network charges Charging will need to change to accommodate moves towards DSO models. This includes short term and long term costs. The treatment of storage and other new assets will need to be considered in a holistic manner to allow them to participate in the market effectively. Connection charges and agreements may need to change to support flexibility/different methods of operation. 25

26 Link to Charging Scope Items Item Scope Areas DSO Charging Models How is BSUoS charged DSO balancing costs What is included in BSUoS Storage and other new assets Treatment of storage Aligning T&D treatment of storage Connection charges & agreements Harmonisation of T&D connection arrangements Access Rights Multiple Links Reflecting exporting GSPs Demand TNUoS (including Triad) Treatment of new transmission investment User commitment Our response will reinforce our view that a holistic review of network charging is necessary. 26

29 Longer term vision for charging Rob Marshall

30 Phased approach Immediate priority areas needing to be progressed in the short term These areas need to be considered in the next two-three years These areas need to be considered in a longer time horizon Long term vision considerations Already being progressed Strong interaction with Ofgem s core scope Long term stakeholder forum Quick Wins Industry Reform Develop and implement long-term vision Stakeholder Forum TODAY 2 Years Time 30

31 Stakeholder Forum Develop and implement long-term vision These areas need to be considered in a longer time horizon Long term vision considerations Establish stakeholder forum with industry to develop long term vision Stakeholder forum will deliver a route map of future market developments that are required to achieve the long term vision Route map of future changes will be fed into the steering group and individual industry codes Ofgem National Grid Stakeholder Forum? Industry 31

32 Case study - Smart Grid Forum Smart Grid Forum established in 2011 to Identify future challenges for electricity networks and system balancing Guide industry development Facilitate the exchange of knowledge within the industry and build stakeholder understanding 9 industry workstreams Different leads for each workstream, including: BEIS (DECC) Ofgem DNOs Energy Network Association (ENA) Forum Members 32

33 Case Study EirGrid DS3 Creation of a Steering Council Lead the review of the market Representatives across industry: networks, system operators, generators, suppliers, aggregators, government & regulation, banks etc. Steering Council Project management office (PMO) Workstreams Central coordination and engagement on behalf of the steering committee Deliver workstreams defined by the steering committee Resources supplied across industry 33

34 What does a stakeholder forum look like to you? Break into groups of 5-7 Feedback to room after each question 20min How should a stakeholder forum be structured? 10min What membership should a steering committee have? 20min What timelines should be worked to? 34

35 Next Steps

36 Next Steps Quick Wins Storage: More info at Jan TCMF. Forecasting: March CMA Losses: January TCMF Holistic Review Alignment with Ofgem s targeted work Further analysis of Embedded benefits and treatment of sunk costs Stakeholder Forum Look to progress early
