Elexon’s response to BEIS consultation on a Smart Export Guarantee (SEG): Part B

Who will this impact?

Elexon’s response highlights the lack of a clear requirement to register SEG eligible installations for settlement under the BSC.

We believe that settlement of export under the BSC is key to unlocking the full system benefits of Market-Wide Half-Hourly Settlement, which will result in more accurate settlement and apportionment of costs across the system and enable more innovative supply propositions.

Therefore, we propose that the SEG requirements should explicitly require exports to be metered and settled to receive a SEG tariff. We do not believe the current proposals adequately address this.
