Consultations for all Process, Operational and Credit areas
This page lists all Consultations relating to BSC and code processes, Market Entry and Compliance, and Operations and Settlement. The consultations allow ELEXON to gather feedback from the industry about proposed changes so that any concerns are considered as part of our processes.
This list does not include Change Consultations.
Credit Assessment Price consultation 04 May 2021
We have issued a consultation paper on the value of Credit Assessment Price (CAP). We invite Parties to indicate whether they agree with the proposal to increase the value of CAP to £68/MWh from last notified value of £60/MWh.
As the trigger level is set at 10% of the CAP value, rounded to the nearest whole pound, this would change to
+/-£7/MWh.
Credit Assessment Price consultation 12 April 2021
A trigger event has occurred, meaning that the absolute difference between the CAP and the reference price is greater than the current trigger level of +/- £5/MWh.
As a result, a consultation on a new CAP value has commenced. The consultation period will end at 17:00 on Tuesday 20 April 2021.
Risk Operating Plan 2021/22 consultation
We invite you to respond to the consultation, which sets out how Elexon, as the Performance Assurance Administrator (PAA), will seek to mitigate Settlement Risks within the Electricity Market in 2021/22.
Risk Evaluation Register 2021/22 consultation
We invite you to respond to the consultation, which sets out the Settlement Risks identified for 2021/22. This new format risk register is a key deliverable from the Performance Assurance Framework Review, and is designed to be more concise, informative and effective.
We will present the consultation responses to the PAB at its meeting on Thursday 25 March 2021. At this meeting, the PAB, with delegated authority from the BSC Panel, will approve the RER 2021/22 (subject to any changes it deems necessary).

Consultation for Allocation of a New Grid Supply Point (GSP) to a GSP Group – February 2021
As part of a 132kV Switchgear change at Barking Central Substation, the National Electricity Transmission System Operator (NETSO) and the affected Licensed Distribution System Operator (LDSO) (UK Power Networks) are taking the opportunity to regularise the connection arrangement where supplies to two LDSO Networks (UK Power Networks (Eastern Power Networks) (EASTELEC) and UK Power Networks (London Power Networks) (LPN)) are currently the subject of a difference metering scheme.
This involves the registration of two ‘new’ GSPs to be known as BARKR_A for EASTELEC, and BARKR_C for LPN, and the eventual de-registration of the existing Grid Supply Point (GSP) BARKC1 registered to LPN and the Distribution System Connection Point (DSCP) BARKC_A registered to EASTELEC.
If you have any views on the allocation of the GSPs as described above, please respond using the consultation response form, and send to the BM unit team by 17:00 on 1 March 2021.
BSC Sandbox Consultation BSB001: application by Emergent Energy – 12 February 2021
Elexon has issued a public industry consultation for BSC Parties and interested Third Parties to seek views on the impacts on Parties relating to the implementation of a BSC Sandbox Application by Emergent Energy.
Emergent Energy are seeking a derogation to enable a trial of on-site aggregation at Private Wire Networks where domestic customers are Supplied by Third Party Suppliers. The derogation will allow Emergent Energy to submit aggregated customer readings in lieu of the sites’ boundary meter readings, eliminating double counting of energy supplied to customers with Third Party Suppliers.
Credit Assessment Price (CAP) consultation: 18 January 2021
We invite Parties to indicate whether they agree with the proposal to increase the value of CAP to £64/MWh from last notified value of £62/MWh.
Credit Assessment Price (CAP) consultation: 21 December 2020
We invite Parties to indicate whether they agree with the proposal to increase the value of CAP to £60/MWh from last notified value of £56/MWh.
As the trigger level is set at 10% of the CAP value, rounded to the nearest whole pound, this would remain at +/-£6/MWh.
