Problem Statement
Under the proposed solution for BSC Modification P455, Consumers will require a Market Participant to oversee the maintenance of their sub-meter, including installations and rectification of metering faults. To ensure this, the REC will need to place a requirement on the MEMs appointed by the boundary point Electricity Supplier to rectify any faults found with the sub-meters used in the On-Site Aggregation.
Proposed solution summary
- The BSC Modification P455 Modification proposes to place a requirement on the SVA MOA (MEMs) appointed by the Boundary Point Supplier to rectify any faults found with the sub meters used in the On-Site Aggregation methodology; and to produce and submit the On-Site Aggregation Form to the HHDC. As MEMs (SVA MOAs) are governed under the Retail Energy Code (REC), R0150 is the REC's subsequent change to propose this.
