1. Microgen – Background 2005 - Absence of Market Rules
300 Microgen Sites
Total Export Energy 158 GWh p.a.
(Avg 40kWh / Site/ Month)
Interim Arrangements
- ESBCS Produced Microgen Tariff
- All Microgen Customers with ESBCS.
- Dedicated Interim Solution

2. Limitations of ESBCS Arrangement
No Facility to Identify Supplier
And is
Manual process so is not at present scalable

3. Proposed Rules for Extended Interim Solution
Monthly Batch Process
Export and Import registered to Same Supplier
All export data for month issued to current supplier
No aggregation of Export
Export kWh only
Confined to NQH sites
The number of sites that can be setup will be guided by the solution

4. Next Steps Agree Rules for Interim Solution
Extend Interim Solution to all Suppliers
Process Data Retrospectively
