Summary
This Change Proposal is to introduce new processes which will allow a Crowded Meter Room Co-ordinator (CMRC) to contract with a REC accredited Metering Equipment Manager (MEM) to act on behalf of the CMRC, so that they may resolve issues in a Crowded Meter Room (CMR) on behalf of all Registered Suppliers within that meter room. The MEMs undertaking this work on behalf of the CMRC will be referred to as the Crowded Meter Room MEM (CMRM).

Proposed solution summary
- As a Consumer I want to be able to have a working Smart Meter that can communicate with my Energy Supplier so that I can receive the benefits of smart metering
- As a property owner I want to be able to have Smart Meters installed in my properties where there are currently issues with meter room space or other technical constraints preventing installation so that my tenants can access the benefits of having a Smart Meter. As a property owner I want a co-ordinated and managed process for resolving crowded meter room issues so that I am not contacted by or dealing with multiple Suppliers or metering agents for a single property.
- As an Energy Supplier, I need to be able to send and receive data, from the CMRC related to interference, faults, or damage to my equipment so that I can fulfil my obligations. As an Energy Supplier I need a coordinated approach to resolving the crowded meter room to enable me to meet my regulatory obligations related to Smart Meter installations and Communications. As an Energy Supplier, I want to know of CMR works being carried out so that I am informed of relevant updates regarding RMPs that I supply. In addition, I wish to be informed if the CMRM identifies any metering issues during their initial assessment or rectification works
- As a Distribution Network Operator, I need to be able to send and receive data, from the CMRC related to danger, interference, or damage to my equipment so that I can fulfil my obligations.
- As a MEM I need a co-ordinated approach to resolving the CMR issues, to enable me to install working Smart Meters on site.

Problem Statement
For many Multiple Dwelling Units (MDU), Alt HAN Co equipment is required. This needs to be installed near to the electricity Smart Meter, connected to the tails of that Smart Meter, and requires at least one further device in the Consumer premises. However, the installation of HAN equipment can be inhibited by Crowded Meter Room (CMR) for the installation of alternative HAN and smart equipment. The objective of the CMR work is to leave a meter room ready for Energy Suppliers to proceed with their installations to meet their smart metering rollout obligations. Without the ability to install the alternative HAN wired bridge device in a CMR, Energy Suppliers will ultimately be unable to establish a HAN with the associated premises in the MDU

Problem Statement
Following the implementation of REC V3.0, the current REC PAB ToR will not support extraordinary meetings and quoracy arrangements driven by the Switching CAB or the appeals route from the Switching CAB to the REC PAB. This change seeks to update the REC PAB ToR to fully represent the changes being implemented as part of REC V3.0, and to also address lessons learnt during the REC PAB’s first year of operation.

Proposed solution summary
- As a Market Participant, I need the industry Market Message/Data Specification to be implemented by all Parties at the same time so that I am able to validate EMRS invoices and credits without having to request additional supporting data or without my Market Messages failing.
- As LCCC I need to delay the implementation of R0011 so that changes to industry Market Message/Data Specification can be implemented by all Parties at the same time so that industry Market Messages don’t fail validation between Parties.
Problem Statement
Following a review of its delivery pipeline, the LCCC has determined it is unable to deploy the changes required in time for the current approved implementation date of 04 November 2022. In order to communicate a revised date and to limit the impacts to industry parties and delivery partners, this change needs to be assessed as a matter of urgency.

- As a Domestic Consumer, I want to be able to choose my Energy Supplier and a tariff from a range of competitive options, so that I can take advantage of cheaper deals as they become available.
- As the Authority, I want the necessary changes made to the Retail Energy Code to introduce the MSC obligations, so that the new MSC licence obligations on Energy Suppliers can be effectively discharged by RECCo.
- As RECCo, I want the Retail Energy Code to specify my obligations, governance and charging mechanisms, so that I can effectively discharge obligations imposed by the Authority through the Licence Condition modification.
- As a Domestic Supplier, I want to understand how RECCo will calculate my credits and liabilities and when they will send my invoices/credit notes, so that I can plan to review my invoices/credit notes prior to the receipt of monies owed or payments I make to RECCo or at an appropriate time for my organisation. As a Domestic Supplier, I want to understand how I could dispute an invoice which I do not believe is accurate, so that I am able to raise a dispute/challenge compliantly

Problem Statement
Energy Suppliers do not currently have the ability to assess their Micro-Business Smart Meter installation performance relative to other Energy Suppliers through Consumer Survey Reports, therefore may not take any appropriate action to address any areas of underperformance or respond to trends in Consumer feedback, wider than their own Consumer base. This could affect the Smart Meter installation service received by Micro-Business Consumers.

Proposed solution summary
- As an impacted Market Participant, I want to ensure good quality underlying data is available to support the transition to HH Settlements to avoid additional time and effort being spent fixing data quality issues during the migration period.
- As the MHHS Programme, I want Registration Data Items to be available ahead of the MHHS migration to enable data cleanse activity to be completed to address data quality issues.

Problem Statement
There are Registration Service Data Items that are critical to the MHHS rules and processes. The MHHS Programme is concerned that starting migration in October 2024 with poor underlying data quality would lead to avoidable time and effort being spent fixing issues during the 12-month migration period. To facilitate MHHS Programme data cleanse activity, prior to the transition to Half Hourly Settlement, Registration Service Data Items need to be introduced into the existing Supplier Meter Registration Service (SMRS) system and displayed in EES.
