Energy regulator Ofgem has released its Sector Specific Methodology Decision (SSMD) for RIIO-3, covering the period between 2026 and 2031.

​Energy regulator Ofgem has released what it has said is a “landmark five year vision” as part of the draft plans for the next price control period, RIIO-ED2.

​The government should set a target of achieving a net zero power system by 2040, SSE has recommended as part of a five-point action plan.

​UK Power Networks has unveiled its updated innovation strategy, targeting three innovation pillars.

​Ofgem’s RIIO-2 Challenge Group has released its report, critiquing the energy network company Business Plans for RIIO-2.

Ofgem has opened a consultation on 12 requests for funding adjustments totalling £322 million under the RIIO-ED1 price control.

We continue our run-down of the most significant stories of the year, today taking a look back at March and April, which saw Ofgem unveil its overhaul of network incentives and major moves from some of UK energy’s biggest players.

Ofgem has published much of the evidence submitted to its RIIO-2 consultation, with network operators largely rallying against a proposed cost of equity range that was beset by “fundamental flaws”.

Energy regulator Ofgem has deferred its decision on the cost of equity range for energy networks in the forthcoming RIIO-2 framework until December, but has unveiled a raft of decisions as its new framework begins to take shape.

Ofgem has confirmed that it will not open a mid-period review (MPR) of the current set of electricity distribution price controls, closing the door on potential changes to the RIIO ED-1 framework.
