Default distributor agreement
We are considering whether to introduce a default distributor agreement to achieve the benefits from more standardisation of use-of-system agreements. The Authority considers that more standardisation of use-of-system agreements will enhance retail competition and lead to more efficient operation of the electricity industry.
