Overview
We are continually updating the Settlement Services we provide, to enhance the customer experience, to comply with the latest Regulations and Rules, and to ensure it remains fit for purpose.
As part of our governance, the changes we undertake are approved by Low Carbon Contracts Company (LCCC) for Contracts for Difference (CfD) and Electricity Settlement Company (ESC) for the Capacity Market (CM) schemes, and we work collaboratively with them on all changes.
Types of change
The two main types of changes that are implemented are:
- Regulatory change
- Service improvement
Regulatory change are required to ensure the service remains compliant with changes to the Regulations and Rules for the schemes we operate on behalf of LCCC and ESC.
Service improvement ensures the service provided continues to be best in class for Capacity Providers, CfD Generator and Suppliers as our customers. This can include small improvements to processes and interfaces or more significant service improvements e.g. a new Service Desk platform. Service improvements can be delivered as small incremental changes or a larger package of changes. EMRS may seek industry views to help inform service improvements.
