Consultation

This consultation sought your views on how regulatory settings could support distribution networks with the uptake of non-network solutions and flexibility services. In particular, on the issues and opportunities related to distribution networks that, if addressed, would help unlock the potential of distributed energy resources for the long-term benefit of consumers.

Non-network solutions such as demand management, distributed generation and distributed energy resources can both unlock new possibilities in reducing peak electricity demand and help save on future grid and network investment.
