Direction on the Electricity System Operator’s financial incentive for 2019-20

Decision

In line with our Electricity System Operator (ESO) regulatory and incentives framework, the ESO published a report on 7 May containing evidence of its performance for the 2019-20 regulatory period.

In June, the ESO Performance Panel convened to assess the ESO’s performance for 2019-20. Following this, we have reviewed the End of Year Report and have considered the ESO Performance Panel’s recommendation and other monitoring and stakeholder evidence to decide on a financial incentive value. This letter sets out our decision on the financial incentive value for the ESO for 2019-20.
