Consultations

We have published a consultation paper on proposed amendments to the Code and the Approved Systems Document that would enable the system operator’s Dispatch Service Enhancement (DSE) project.

The proposed amendments to the Approved Systems Document would allow for the current GENCO software to be replaced as the approved system used to issue electronic dispatch instructions. We propose GENCO would cease to be an approved system on 31 December 2020. We also propose additional amendments to Part 13 of the Code that would increase the benefits from adopting new communication protocols for issuing electronic dispatch instructions.

We consider these amendments would promote competition, reliability and efficiency in the dispatch service.
