Issue 84 was Raised by SSE Electricity Limited on 10 July 2019.

The Issue 84 meeting was held on 31 July 2019. The Workgroup (WG) considered extending the existing RTS Contract between the ENA and Elexon, to facilitate RTS cost recovery across all Trading Parties; and Raising a BSC Modification to introduce a requirement for the BSCCo to recover additional RTS costs from Suppliers under BSC recovery mechanisms. The Workgroup agreed the following:

• Solution 1 – Option a) should be implemented and a Modification could be raised to progress Solution 2 Option b) or c) if a BSC Party wishes to do so. Solution 1 option a) will result in a change to the existing RTS contract between the ENA and Elexon.
• Elexon is to engage with the ENA to discuss the details of the contract change. Industry will be notified of the contract change outcome and implementation timelines.
• The industry will be notified of the WG decision and Parties can raise a Modification should they wish to progress with Solution 2.
