Development of a Regulatory Regime for Offshore Electricity Transmission
Starting Date: 27-07-05
Closing Date: 19-10-05
The development of an offshore electricity transmission system will be necessary to meet the requirements of new offshore electricity generation stations which are important to reducing carbon dioxide emissions and the Government’s renewable energy targets. This preliminary consultation seeks views on a range of high-level options for the regulation of offshore electricity transmission. These views will be taken into account in establishing the broad regulatory approach with a further consultation on the detailed workings of any regime in early 2006.
