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.

Problem Statement
Following the implementation of REC V3.0, the Code Manager (Performance Assurance) will need to receive the data necessary for them to complete their Performance Assurance activities post REC V3.0 The Performance Assurance Report Catalogue requires a change to include the new and updated Data Items. These are required to support the monitoring of Retail Risks included in the revised Performance Assurance Risk Register and give REC Parties clarity on the data they are required to provide.

Proposed solution summary
- As the REC Code Manager, I want to ensure that REC Service Providers achieve their Service Level Agreements (SLAs) defined in REC Service Definitions, so that impacts to the REC Code Manager, REC Parties and other Service Providers, as a consequence of Service Provider underperformance, are minimised and the change process delivers to time and cost.
- As a Service Provider, I want clarity on when and how Performance Charges will be used as part of the Performance Assurance Techniques, so that I’m clear on what service levels I need to meet and the consequences of not delivering against these.

Problem Statement
Service Provider performance measures and charges do not currently exist for services that are not procured by the Retail Energy Code Company but are provided by other Parties. The performance of Service Providers is essential to the proper functioning of the market, without appropriate performance measure or Performance Charges there is little incentive for these providers to maintain service performance or improve poor performance in a timely manner.

Proposed solution summary
- As a domestic Electricity Consumer, I want to be quoted accurately for my electricity usage based on my electricity consumption, so that I can make an informed decision to accept/reject the quotation offered.
- As an Electricity Supplier, I want to have access to the most recent Metering Point consumption data to be able to provide accurate prices/quotations to a consumer based on their Electricity usage.
- As a Third-Party Intermediary (TPI), I want to have access to the most recent Metering Point consumption data to be able to provide accurate prices/quotations to a consumer based on their Electricity usage.
Problem Statement
Where an Electricity Supplier provides a quotation, or Third-Party Intermediary (TPI) completes a comparison, for an Electricity Consumer they must rely on the information provided by the Consumer about their electricity usage. In some cases, consumers may not have access to or knowledge of their annual electricity usage. Consequently, this would be estimated leading to potential inaccurate quotations being provided. Having access to the Metering Point level Estimated Annual Consumption (EAC) via the Electricity Enquiry Service (EES) would enable the provision of more accurate electricity quotations, enabling the Consumer to make an informed choice about their Electricity Supplier, tariff and product.

Proposed solution summary
- As an Electricity Consumer, I want data associated with my electricity supply to be made consistently available to Market Participants relevant organisations, so that they have equal access to the data they use to supply my electricity or look after my meter.
- As an EES User, I want to have access to all the data items appropriate to my EES User Category so that I can operate processes without disruption, to provide a good service to my customers and meet my performance targets. As the EES Provider I want to have clarity on the data items that I should provide to EES Users appropriate to their role. As the Code Manager I want Market Participants to have access to appropriate data in EES so they can complete business processes and meet performance targets, while ensuring access to data is subject to appropriate security and controls.

Problem Statement
There is currently a lack of clarity regarding the data items that should be accessible by each EES User Category and there are potentially instances where data restrictions have been placed on EES Users which cannot be justified. The Data Access Matrix does not currently provide a single standardised role-based framework for EES Users’ access to data. This means that the Code Manager and the EES Provider cannot grant and provide EES Users with standardised access for a particular role. This may also result in operational issues for new entrants or can create a situation whereby EES Users in the same role have different access arrangements.

Latest Update
30/06/2023 - This change was implemented on 30 June 2023 as part of the June 2023 REC Release
Summary
Currently only the Registered Supplier can instruct a Metering Equipment Manager (MEM) to work on their metering asset. There is no ability to request that a single MEM completes work on multiple properties that may have different Electricity Suppliers. This creates barriers to developing solutions for local authorities, private and social housing landlords who are refurbishing premises or to help any premise owner (whether domestic or non-domestic) install new equipment to facilitate Low & Zero Carbon Technology (LZCT) installation such as the retro-fit of Electric Vehicle Charging (EVC) Points to homes and business premises. This Change Proposal will introduce a new role for existing accredited MEMs that will enable them to accept instructions to undertake a limited set of activities at the request of the premise owners without the need to use the Registered Suppliers’ MEMs.

Proposed solution summary
- As a property owner or occupier I want to be to arrange for the installation of equipment for the use of the occupier, such as fitting an isolator, installing on-site generation equipment or electric vehicle charging points. I want the installer to use a Safe Isolator Provider (SIP) who is authorised to undertake the work at my instruction rather than arrange for this work to be completed through the premises’ Registered Suppliers.
- As a REC Accredited Metering Equipment Manager, I want to be able to work as a SIP and de-energise and re-energise a site on the instruction of the homeowner/landlord, so that equipment – such as an isolator, on-site generation or electric vehicle charging points can be fitted without the need to co-ordinate the work with the Registered Suppliers’ MEMs. As a Distribution Network Operator, I want to be assured that the work is only completed by a SIP that has the necessary skills and REC accreditation and has the appropriate permissions to de-energise and re-energise the supply and doesn’t introduce any additional risk to the Distribution Network.
- As the Registered Supplier, I want to know what steps the SIP who attends the site and finds the site in an unsafe situation to re-energise, will take so that my customer is not left off-supply unnecessarily. As the Registered Supplier, I want to be alerted if the SIP finds any evidence of meter tampering at the premises.

Problem Statement
It is difficult for landlords of local authority, social housing developments or private landlords of homes and businesses to co-ordinate the refurbishment of properties where they need the electricity supply to be de-energised to allow work being completed and the supply re-energised. Currently the landlord needs to liaise with the Electricity Supplier of each premise independently to arrange for the appointed MEM to attend and de-energise each supply point and then re-energise the site when the work is completed, as currently only the Registered Supplier’s appointed MEM or the DNO is permitted to undertake the work.

It is not clear if these requests are all necessary or required by the MEMs and justify the effort required by the DNO to process these requests.

Problem Statement
During times of sustained supply chain shortages, some colour coded cables may not generally be available. Where this is the case, Metering Equipment Managers (MEMs) and Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) need to be able to source a suitable alternative cable so that they can continue to install and maintain meters. Although the labelling of cables with different out sheath colours from the inner insulation is covered by the IET Wiring Regulations, this is not set out within the REC Electricity MOCoP.

Proposed solution summary
- As an EES User (organisation), I want a method of integrating the service status of the EES API with my systems, so that in the event of EES API outage or disruption I do not trigger unnecessary internal diagnostic activity of my IT systems and processes, and I can initiate appropriate mitigation activity to reduce impacts to my systems and/or the services I provide.
Problem Statement
EES Users do not have a method of integrating the service status of the EES API with their systems. EES Users could experience disruption in their systems/services, caused by EES API disruption or outage. EES Users are not able to automatically identify the root cause of API outages/disruption and may initiate unnecessary internal diagnostic activity after seeing disruption in their systems/services

Summary
The aim of this proposal is to reduce the extra assistance required by Electricity Market Reform (EMR) parties in the invoice validation by updating the backing data within the Market Messages to align to what is being invoiced. The associated Market Messages should be structured and named in line with the actual output of Settlement systems to facilitate validation of Capacity Market (CM) Scheme and the Contracts for Difference (CfD) financial settlement.

Solution Development
Proposed solution summary
- As a Market Participant, I need to be able to validate EMRS invoices and credits without having to request additional supporting data.
- As EMR Settlement Ltd, I need to have an efficient mechanism in place that enables me to provide Market Participants with all the relevant data that they need to validate their invoices and credit notes, to reduce/remove the need for Market Participants to contact the service desk for additional information.

Problem Statement
There is no method for Suppliers and Generators to validate their invoices based on the data currently provided within the relevant Market Messages. Parties are able to request all relevant data from EMRS; however, this is time consuming for Parties, EMRS and LCCC/ESC
