Recommendation 23

23 Paragraph: 97

Ofgem's current electricity network regulation model unresponsive to rapid energy system flux.

Conclusion
We consider that the current model of Ofgem electricity network regulation, based around lengthy multi-year business plans, risks not being responsive enough to an energy system which is in rapid flux. The present regulatory model locks in market controls over many years: in the current climate, this risks slowing down innovation and restricting network development.
