Changes to incorporate Central Management Systems in Unmetered Supplies arrangements
Various manufacturers have developed new technologies which allow certain forms of equipment categorised as UMS in the BSC Arrangements to be controlled in a more dynamic way. These technologies, known as CMS, provide customers with greater control over the operation of the supply, allowing both the equipment’s switching times and power loads to be controlled down to each half hour period. This level of control offers the potential for customers to make significant energy savings, helping to meet increasingly tight regulations on energy consumption and carbon emissions.
DCP0001 proposes a number of changes that would need to be made incorporated CMS in the UMS arrangements. The changes have been proposed by the CMS Review Group, which was established by Supplier Volume Allocation Group (SVG).
