The Electricity Capacity (Supplier Payment etc.) (Amendment and Excluded Electricity) Regulations 2024

Under the Electricity Capacity (Supplier Payment etc.) Regulations 2014 (S.I. 2014/3354, the “Supplier Payment Regulations”), electricity suppliers make payments (based on the amounts of electricity they supply) to fund payments to electricity capacity providers under the Capacity Market (provided for in Regulations and Rules made under Chapter 3 of Part 2 of the Energy Act 2013). These Regulations exclude from the calculation of these payments, electricity (“CM EII excluded electricity”) that is supplied to industrial customers who have been issued with “EII certificates” under the Electricity Supplier Obligations (Amendment & Excluded Electricity) Regulations 2015 (S.I. 2015/721, the “Excluded Electricity Regulations”).
