The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps his Department is taking to reform TNUoS charging arrangements ahead of CfD Allocation Round 8.

Answered by Michael Shanks

By law, transmission charging arrangements are a matter for Ofgem as the independent regulator. Ofgem are currently reviewing the arrangements and are holding a call for input. Government is supporting Ofgem closely on the review, as part of our wider Reformed National Pricing programme and our delivery of the Strategic Spatial Energy Plan. We will ensure that transmission charging is reformed as soon as possible.
