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.
