Recommendation 15

15 Paragraph: 88

Limited visibility of grid connections queue; recent reforms may initially lengthen waiting times.

Conclusion
Overall visibility of the grid connections queue is limited, and it is possible that the immediate effect of the reforms introduced has been to lengthen the connections queue as developers react to the new regime. While we welcome the Ofgem project milestone reforms which took effect in November 2023, the measures entailed in the Connections Action Plan may take longer to have a positive effect on the queue.
