Consequential Cross-Code Change for BSC P441 - Complex Site Classes Creation
Summary
A Balancing & Settlement Code (BSC) Modification P441 is looking to introduce additional Complex Site classes which would categorise the types of Complex Site, with each having clearly defined criteria within the BSC, whilst also facilitating a new "type" of Complex Site (referred to as a Class 6 Complex Site) to allow approval of "non-standard" complex sites. It will also clarify when the netting of Imports from Exports for multiple Metering Systems registered in Supplier Volume Allocation (SVA) is permitted.

Problem Statement
The introduction of new Complex Site classes is needed into the REC to make the solutions under P441 and DCP 424 work. Meter Equipment Managers (MEMs) will need to understand what their new obligations are in respect of metering requirements, as well as impacts on any of the metering processes associated with a Complex Site.
Proposed solution summary
- As a consumer, I want more choice to take up low-carbon technology and more flexible energy solutions through local energy schemes, such as the Ofgem BEIS Smart System Flexibility Plan and any other future flexibility service provisions that may be developed.
- For MEMs, l want to remove ambiguity around the current Complex Site arrangements and will facilitate the advancement of community energy schemes.
- For Suppliers, I want to encourage more innovation that will lead to the better use of local energy schemes.
