DCP0025 - Transfer of the Non Half Hourly Data Aggregator functional requirements from PSL140 to BSCP505 following the creation of PSL100 ‘Generic Non Functional Requirements For Licensed Distribution System Operators And Party Agents’

The CSD review highlighted a large amount of duplication between the requirements in the PSLs and the corresponding BSCPs. To resolve this issue a single generic PSL has been created under CP1182 ‘Creation of a generic Party Service Line’ which will contain participants’ non-functional requirements.

Following on from CP1182, DCP0025 was raised on 11 January 2008 by Elexon and seeks to move the functional requirements of PSL140 ‘Non Half Hourly Data Aggregation’ into BSCP505 ‘Non Half Hourly Data Aggregation for SVA Metering Systems Registered in SMRS’.

The removal of the duplication between PSL140 and BSCP505 will mean that Non Half Hourly Data Aggregators (NHHDAs) will only have to look in one place to find the functional requirements relating to their role, which may be particularly useful to new entrants. This change will also reduce the cost associated with preparing and maintaining numerous and duplicated PSLs.
