What’s the problem Ofgem wants to solve
Are network charges fair for each user
and
fit for a more decentralized energy future

Ofgem uses the
Price Control Review
to set revenue target
for network operators
Distribution Transmission
Forward looking
Residual
Networks charge for residual and forward-looking signals in
the same way, so customers can’t react to forward-
looking signals without also reducing their contribution to
residual (sunk) costs.

Some users manipulate
their demand to reduce
their contribution.
But that means other

the shortfall.

designed for a highly
