This document contains our decision to introduce the Advanced Procurement Mechanism (APM) into the electricity transmission price control. This will enable transmission owners to book supply chain capacity earlier than current arrangements, supporting delivery of GB decarbonisation and clean power targets.  

This follows a consultation in November 2024 from which we received views from transmission developers, organisations with an interest in the global and GB supply chain for electricity transmission, consumer groups and other interested stakeholders.
