#67 Grid News and Views - Episode 14

Connectologists® Kyle, Catherine, and Philip are joined by Alex in her first Grid News & Views as a Connectologist®, covering Connections Reform developments, code modifications, and emerging challenges as Gate 2 offers approach. Ofgem has confirmed a backstop-only role in disputes, meaning developers must now work through all NESO processes and arbitration before escalation—making a clear understanding of NESO’s complaint routes more important than ever. Gate 2 pressures intensify: • Transmission decisions due by Dec 2025 (with some DNOs signalling delays), distribution by Q1 2026 • Offer acceptance windows: 3 months for transmission, 4 weeks for distribution • Only 4 weeks allowed for technical queries • A 6-month planning-to-construction window still overlooks financing and sales realities Also in this episode: • Demand uncertainty: NESO’s RFI seeks sensitive commercial info without clarity on use; CMP417 delays to 2026 mean continued over-securitisation; TIA thresholds swing wildly from 1MW to 50MW across DNOs • SGT charging: DCP461 could see GSP reinforcement costs socialised via DUoS (consultation closes 28 Nov) • Operational risks: ANM schemes need clearer constraint rules, and abnormal network running continues to cause surprise curtailment with no mandatory DNO reporting Our links: Website: https://roadnighttaylor.co.uk/ Newsletter sign up: https://roadnighttaylor.co.uk/newslet...
