BSC Changes impacting a Supplier Meter Registration Agent
This page shows which Modifications and Change Proposals have been identified as impacting a Supplier Meter Registration Agent. Please note that the assessment of where impacts may affect certain roles within the electricity market may be amended during the course of the Change process.
CP1544 ‘BSCCo Approved EFR Representative sign-off required for any EFR plan following escalation’
CP1552 Reflecting BSCP501 timeframes in BSCP520 processes
CP1552 seeks to provide clarity to market participants about the timeframes for various processes in BSCP520 ‘Unmetered Supplies Registered in SMRS’.
P436 Consequential BSC changes for Switching SCR (REC 3.0)
Ofgem’s Switching Significant Code Review (SCR) will introduce the new Central Switching Service (CSS) and version 3.0 of the Retail Energy Code (REC 3.0). P436 progresses the consequential BSC changes needed to align with REC 3.0.
P427 Publication of Performance Assurance Parties’ impact on Settlement Risk
This Modification seeks to amend BSC Section Z to allow the Performance Assurance Board (PAB) to recommend that the Panel publish notices to industry in respect of Performance Assurance Parties’ (PAPs’) contribution to Settlement Risk along with relevant risk data.
CP1558 New Registration data items to facilitate MHHS
This Change Proposal will introduce new Registration Service data items and supporting BSC processes into existing Supplier Meter Registration Service (SMRS) systems.
CP1568 Inclusion of new LDSO-mastered SMRS data items
This Change Proposal will include new LDSO-mastered SMRS data items in the SVA Data Catalogue, the REC EMAR Data Specification and BSCP604.
P456 Enable Elexon to procure ancillary Technology Services for use by BSC Agents
Removing barriers in BSC Section E that would prevent Elexon updating BSC Agent contracts, therefore enabling BSC Agents to use Technology Services procured by Elexon. This should reduce costs for BSC Parties.
P463 Introduce a Standard Change Process
To introduce a new change process – a ‘Standard Change’ process – into the BSC arrangements that would allow for certain, low risk, predictable and repeatable pre-authorised changes to be implemented without following the existing Change Proposal or Modification procedures.
