Supplier

How will we support Suppliers with EMR Settlement?

Once a Supplier has been granted an electricity supply licence, we’ll interact with them by providing support and guidance, for Contracts for Difference (CFD) and Capacity Market (CM), via the following methods:

• Stakeholder events (together with the Low Carbon Contracts Company)
• EMR website, including Working Practices, Guidance, EMR Circulars
• Queries via email to us at [email protected] or telephone 020 7380 4333

We’ll support you in understanding the activities against the following regulations:

• The Contracts for Difference (Electricity Supplier Obligations) Regulations 2014
• The Electricity Capacity (Supplier Payment etc.) Regulations 2014

* Including any subsequent amendments to these regulations.

What is the Supplier Registration Form?

The Supplier Registration Form confirms the following information:

• Company registered details (Name, Address, Company Number)
• EMR Party ID
• Primary company email address
• Bank account details
• Authorised contacts and users
• Interface to be used in sending backing data

These details enable us to undertake our operational activities regarding settlement, in issuing communication, invoices and backing data. Also, it supports us in establishing the appropriate controls for when requests are made to change registration details so that we can ensure that we are dealing with the authorised contacts in such instances.
