Latest Update
21/07/2026 - On 21 July 2026, the REC Change Panel voted to approve the Change Report (Proposal Plan) for I0325.
Summary
The REC was updated, primarily through R0209 and R0241, to add requirements that support the transition to, and enduring operation of the MHHS arrangements. As part of the transition, each impacted Metering Point will be migrated using processes defined in Codes, including the REC. Once this migration activity is complete, the legacy and transitional arrangements will become redundant and should be removed from the REC to support its efficient operation

Problem Statement
Retention of redundant obligations within the REC would make it more complex to navigate for Market Participants and could cause confusion on the obligations that are in effect to support the efficient operation of the Great British Energy retail market. It is also worth noting that until Ofgem formally closes the MHHS Significant Code Review (SCR), this REC Issue could potentially impact that SCR.

Latest Update
08/04/2026 - The Closure Report was presented to the REC Metering Expert Panel at their meeting on 08 April 2026. The Issue has now been classed as resolved.
Summary
The issue identified is that current arrangements require or assume that legacy Meter Asset Providers (MAPs) take back old, non Smart Meters once they are removed from Consumers’ Premises, even though many of these meters are obsolete, cannot be reused, and ultimately require disposal. This has resulted in large volumes of legacy meters being transported across the country between storage providers and legacy MAPs, creating unnecessary cost, administrative burden, and environmental impact. Storage providers are issuing extensive lists of Meter Serial Numbers (MSN) to try to establish meter ownership, and legacy MAPs must manually verify these details. This process has been made more difficult by historical changes in company names and ownership structures. Once ownership is confirmed, the meters are frequently transported to the legacy MAP only for them to arrange disposal, which provides no net value and simply adds further transportation and handling costs.

Problem Statement
The process for handling removed legacy non Smart Meters is inefficient and environmentally costly, with unclear ownership, unnecessary transport, and no established recycling route. A consistent, sustainable disposal solution is needed to reduce waste, simplify operations, and clarify the management of any scrap value.

Latest Update
12/08/2026 - the Proposer has chosen to withdraw this Issue as MHHS means many of the effective dates are being updated as per the original business case so the change is no longer required.
Summary
On a switch many of the effective dates within EES default to the switch date. This includes energisation status. It means EES users that don't have access to the meter technical details do not know the actual date the status changed.

Latest Update
29/04/2026 - This Issue has been withdrawn by the Proposer, as there was not a strong preference amongst MAPs of which temporary solution option (if any) should be progressed. Many MAPs already have workarounds in place, and a permanent solution is expected to be progressed in the future through a joint REC / BSC change. The adoption window has closed.
Summary
As part of Market Wide Half Hourly Settlement (MHHS) design, the requirement to provide Data Item Effective from Settlement Date {REGI} (J0049 / DI50025) in the Notification of Meter Operator, Supplier and Metering Assets installed / removed by the MOP to the MAP Market Message (D0303 / MM00240) has been changed from mandatory to optional. This means Meter Asset Providers (MAP) may not receive it.

Problem Statement
The Effective from Settlement Date {REGI} Data Item being optional rather than mandatory inside the Notification of Meter Operator, Supplier and Metering Assets installed / removed by the MOP to the MAP Market Message means that MAPs may not receive this information required for billing purposes.
