SR 2nd Draft response: OFTO Build consultation

Since Ofgem’s Offshore Transmission Owner (OFTO) build model policy update last year signalled a move to early competition, as advocated by industry, the regulator has now published a consultation looking at proposals for this model for non-radial transmission assets. Published on September 4, the consultation is looking at the potential design and scope of the model including elements of the tendering process and aligning with the Competitively Appointed Transmission Owner (CATO) model.
