As part of the our forward work programme 2014-15, we are launching a review of contestability of new connections to electricity networks.  This review is in line with our statutory duty to promote competition wherever appropriate in the transmission, generation or supply of electricity.

The first stage in the review is a call for evidence.  A call for evidence document sets out the background and key issues for interested stakeholders. In addition to this document a questionnaire is also provided.  This should be completed when sending a response to the call for evidence.
