P483 Assessment Procedure Consultation
This Modification seeks to address this issue by removing the Half-Hourly settlement requirement for associated Boundary Point Metering Systems. Doing so will expand access to flexibility markets for domestic consumers, support equitable participation in energy services, and reduce the dependency on Market-wide Half-Hourly Settlement (MHHS) for consumer inclusion. This change is expected to enable flexible asset participation and support energy system goals such as Clean Power 2030.

This Modification aims to align BSC rules with evolving CfD arrangements by introducing greater flexibility in how assets are registered within BM Units. By simplifying administrative processes and supporting efficient energy management, this change helps market participants optimise their operations while ensuring continued compliance with the BSC. Additionally, it reflects ongoing developments in Government policy, allowing for a more adaptable and streamlined approach to CfD asset management.

Consultation on P485 Stabilise TLFs for BSC Year 2025/26 at 2024/25 levels
This Urgent Modification proposes that, until the BSC Panel’s determination that 2025/26’s Transmission Loss Factors (TLFs) reflect expected changes in variable losses due to marginal demand or generation changes as anticipated when BSC Modification P350 was approved, TLFs from the 2024–25 BSC Year will apply to the 2025-26 BSC Year from the P485 Implementation Date.
The Panel must decide what TLF values, the ‘corrected values’, to apply. The Panel are consulting on two solution options. Under the Proposed, the ‘corrected values’ will be applied from 1 April 2025. Under the Alternative solution, the ‘corrected values’ will apply from the BSC Season following the Panel determination.
