DWG Consultation Skeleton Target Operating Models 2018
This consultation has been prepared by the Design Working Group to inform stakeholders about the skeleton TOMs and seeks your input on the design and evaluation work to date.
The TOM design work has been developed for Ofgem by the Elexon-chaired Design Working Group. The Group has met monthly since October and produced five high level ‘skeleton’ TOM options, as set out in this consultation. We have approved the skeleton TOMs, concluding the first stage of the TOM design work.
The Design Working Group will now, through this consultation and a stakeholder seminar, seek stakeholder views on the skeleton TOMs to inform them as they proceed to stage 2, which is where the detailed design of the skeleton TOMs will be undertaken.

Elexon has received three new GSP registrations application from the Transmission Company. All relate to the reconfiguration of existing assets.
Harris GSP and Stornoway GSP (North of Scotland)

Data review for the Market Index Definition Statement – 2017
The Market Index Definition Statement (MIDS) defines the way the Market Index Price is calculated. We review the MIDS annually, as required by the Balancing and Settlement Code (BSC).
