Half Hourly (HH) Capacity Level Reductions Terms & Conditions.
District Network Operator (DNO) Terms & Conditions:
Power Networks can reject an application to reduce the capacity level.
Once the capacity level is reduced, it will be released back into the network for others to use and may not be available in future. Customers may have to pay significant sums to have extra capacity provided again.
It is important for Customers to confirm they do not have any plans in future to increase their maximum power demand for the MPANs stated in our proposals to such an extent that it exceeds the New Capacity Level.
Capacity levels can only be changed once within a 12 month period.
The current Distribution Connection and Use of System Agreement (DCUSA) states that a supply must reduce its Maximum Import Capacity (MIC) by more than 50% in order for it to be considered an ‘exceptional circumstance’ where the Residual Charging Band will be revised. This relates to Transmission (TNUoS) pass-through charges. Any changes less than this 50% may result in no change to the Distribution (DUoS) Tariff ID. This would mean only the DUoS Capacity Cost savings will be achieved and not the DUoS + TNUoS Fixed Cost savings.
Energunite HH Capacity Level Reduction Service Proposal Terms & Conditions:
We will require a comprehensive Letter of Authority (LOA) from the end consumer in order to complete the HH Capacity Level Reduction service in full. LOAs from third parties will not be sufficient to complete this exercise as it is a condition made by the DNOs.
Our saving calculations are calculated based on the effective date of change until the end of the next fiscal year. For example, if the new connections agreement has an effective date of 1st January 2026, the savings will cover period 01/01/2026 to 31/03/2027 etc.
Our participation fees are based on the expected annual savings in the next fiscal year. In the above example for instance, our participation fee would be based on the saving between 01/04/2026 to 31/03/2027 (even though the effective date is 01/01/2026).
Savings are expected to continue after the next fiscal year where the Customer will experience 100% of the savings.
We will revise our fees downwards, to the correct participation values should the savings be less as a result of a miscalculation by us during the Proposal Phase. However we will not reduce our fees should there be a sudden announcement by the DNOs, NESO or Ofgem of change in UK energy policy (e.g. if they no longer link DUoS Tariff IDs to Maximum Import Capacity levels etc.). We will not revise our fees upwards if the savings are greater than expected.
We will inform Customers of any delays in the effective dates of change and provide the reasons why this has happened. Unless Customers raise an objection at this point, we will continue working towards achieving the HH capacity level reduction savings and charging our participation fees at the values mentioned within the proposal. This is despite any later effective dates.
Our participation fee for the DUoS Capacity Cost savings will be invoiced at the start of our work shortly after our proposal has been accepted. Our participation fee for the DUoS + TNUoS Fixed Cost savings will be invoiced after our work has been completed. We expect our invoices to be honoured and settled within the payment terms stated in invoice.
By signing our proposal documents, we understand the Customer is happy to proceed based on the above terms and conditions.
