Summary
Quae cum dixisset, finem ille. Quamquam non negatis nos intellegere quid sit voluptas, sed quid ille dicat. Progredientibus autem aetatibus sensim tardeve potius quasi nosmet ipsos cognoscimus. Gloriosa ostentatio in constituendo summo bono. Qui-vere falsone, quaerere mittimus-dicitur oculis se privasse; Duarum enim vitarum nobis erunt instituta capienda. Comprehensum, quod cognitum non habet? Qui enim existimabit posse se miserum esse beatus non erit. Causa autem fuit huc veniendi ut quosdam hinc libros promerem. Nunc omni virtuti vitium contrario nomine opponitur.

Problem Statement
The REC currently limits the use of Retail Energy Location (REL) data to Switching purposes only. This limits the Authority’s ability to match a UPRN to an MPAN in support of the government’s Bill Discount Scheme.

Summary
As part of the planning required to deliver Net Zero, Gas Distribution Networks (GDNs) are obligated to plan Industrial and Commercial (I&C) gas demand at a more granular, site-specific level. To meet this obligation, access to Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Code data, matched to both Gas and Electricity Meter Point Reference Numbers, would provide a significantly improved understanding of I&C customers.

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
An Update to Plan has been approved by the REC Technical Expert Panel on 25 June 2026.
Summary
The Meter Manufacturers Make and Type (J0410 / DI-048) was not populated as part of the MHHS Programme's data cleanse. However it is part of the SMRS maintained Meter Technical Details (MTDs) for Smart Meters which replace the DTC MTD Market Messages for Smart Meters in the MHHS environment. It is not currently possible to populate this item in the legacy arrangements.

Problem Statement
Following MHHS Migration, the MTDs provided by SMRS do not include the Meter Manufacturers Make and Type, as this replaces the existing D0149/D0150 Market Messages it could lead to the information being lost. This will mean Energy Suppliers and MOAs will not know the make and type of meter installed at a particular Site.

12/05/2026 - The Code Manager have developed a solution which has been live since 05 May 2026. More detail can be found on the REC Portal Wiki. A Closure Report has now been published, and this Issue has now been classed as resolved.
Summary
The RegistrationId (DI90043 / DI849) is required by SMRS to be included in the IF-031 'Supplier Agent Appointment Request' Market Message to allow the SMRA to process the appointment request. However not all Suppliers hold the RegistrationId for all Meter Points, in particular those that have not undergone a Registration managed by the Central Switching Service (CSS)

Proposed solution summary
- As part of the solution for REC Issue I0296 - Registration Id Required for MHHS Appointments the REC Code Manager have developed a process to provide Energy Suppliers the Registration Id for Metering Points that have not been through a Central Switching Service (CSS) Registration Managed Switch. This is to allow Energy Suppliers that may not hold the Registration Id for these Metering Points to populate the Market-wide Half Hourly Settlement (MHHS) Agent Appointment Messages required to initiate a MHHS Migration.

Problem Statement
Not all Energy Suppliers hold the RegistrationId for all Meter Points, particularly those Meter Points that have not gone through a Switch, i.e. have not undergone a Registration managed by the CSS. The RegistrationId is currently only available where a Metering Point has been through a CSS managed Registration. Without the RegistrationId available to Energy Suppliers, not all Metering Points will be able to migrate putting the MHHS Migration and Milestone M15 at risk.

Implementation of IF-051 Data Refresh in EES for BSC CP1607

Latest Update
07/07/2026 - The Change Report (Update to Plan) has been approved by the REC Change Panel. This Update to Plan reset the Priority Category and urgency status of R0294, following the deferred implementation of the lead BSC CP 1607. R0294 continues to be on hold until further solution development is undertaken as part of CP 1607. The Code Manager will continue to work with Elexon and Service Providers for future progression of any changes to implement the IF-051.
Summary
The IF-051 provides a refresh of data from Supplier Meter Registration Service (SMRS) to the Electricity Enquiry Service (EES) (REC) and Market Data Service (BSC). Currently the REC does not hold any detail regarding the DIP Market Messages that the EES is required to receive and process. Due to the nature of the IF-051, the EES Provider obligations need to be clear to ensure the interface can be received and processed appropriately.

Problem Statement
BSC CP 1607 will implement a new DIP Market Message, the IF-051 ‘Data Refresh’ on 26 March 2026. EES will be a recipient of that change. If EES is not able to receive and process instances of the IF-051, data in EES will be misaligned with other industry systems (SMRS, DIP and MDS) meaning that it will not maintain its role as the accurate reference point for industry participants. This could lead to potential disruption of industry processes.

02/06/2026 - the REC Change Panel voted to reject the implementation of this Change Proposal, in line with the Code Manager recommendation. The appeal window closed on 17 June 2026.
Summary
MHHS removes certain Data Items (e.g. Profile Class, Measurement Class, Standard Settlement Configuration, Time Pattern Regime etc.) that are important to wider processes and products offered to consumers. This proposal is seeking a mechanism for electricity Market Participants to look up the previous entries for these legacy Data Items held before MHHS Migration begins.
