We are consulting on the System Operator: Transmission Owner (SO:TO) Optimisation output delivery incentive (ODI) that is being trialled in the electricity transmission RIIO-2 price control.
The purpose of the SO:TO Optimisation ODI is to encourage the Electricity Transmission Owners to proactively identify and provide enhanced services to the Electricity System Operator (ESO) to help reduce the cost of operating the transmission system.
We have assessed the outcomes of the ODI in the first trial year and set out our findings in this consultation document. We consider it is in consumers’ interest for the SO:TO Optimisation ODI to continue to operate in years 3 to 5 of RIIO-2. Therefore, we are proposing to retain the ODI for the remainder of the RIIO-2 electricity transmission price control. We are also consulting on options to amend some design parameters of the ODI that we consider will further increase the benefits for consumers.
We welcome views from all stakeholders interested in this consultation. If you wish to respond to this consultation, please send your views to anna.kulhavy@ofgem.gov.uk on or before 15 March 2023.
