UK Power Networks provides power to a quarter of the UK's population and is committed to:
- Maintaining a safe, secure and sustainable power supply to around eight million homes and businesses in London, the South East and the East of England;
- Developing the electricity infrastructure which includes 170,000 kilometres of power lines;
- Strengthening links with the local communities it serves and building on the skills base of the 5 000 workforce located at the major bases in Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds, Potters Bar, London, Crawley, Bexleyheath and Maidstone; and
- Giving customers the best possible service and maintaining operational efficiency across our electricity networks being at the heart of what we do.
UK Power Networks has a vision to be:
- An employer of choice
- A respected corporate citizen
- Sustainably cost efficient
UK Power Networks focus is to deliver our priorities and to operate in a safe environment whist behaving safely. UK Power Networks has invested heavily over the last two years in improving its overall capability, processes and systems for procuring and delivering its major capital programme of work. Although this has led to a demonstrable improvement in performance since 2010, including a significant reduction in its indirect costs, further changes are planned to ensure that UK Power Networks' approach to procurement and delivery reflects industry best practice.
This is deemed necessary in order that UK Power Networks can provide assurance regarding the physical and commercial deliverability of its RIIO-ED1 capital programme plan.
In support of this, UK Power Networks has benchmarked its current approach to that adopted by other major infrastructure client organisations in order to understand best practice to help it move it closer towards frontier performance.
Ofgem, as the regulator, must ensure that this is delivered at a fair price for consumers. To help achieve this, Ofgem developed RIIO (Revenue=Incentives+ Innovation+Outputs), a new performance based model for setting the network companies' price controls which will last eight years.
RIIO is designed to encourage network companies to:
Put stakeholders at the heart of the decision-making process
Invest efficiently to ensure continued safe and reliable services
Innovate to reduce network costs for current and future consumers
Play a full role in delivering a low carbon economy and wider environmental objectives.
In early 2013 Ofgem completed the first price control reviews to use the RIIO framework: RIIO-T1 (gas and electricity transmission) and RIIO-GD1 (gas distribution). They are currently undertaking the RIIO-ED1 price control review for electricity distribution.
RIIO-ED1 is the first electricity distribution price control to reflect the new RIIO model for network regulation. The RIIO-ED1 price control sets the outputs that the 14 electricity Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) will need to deliver for their consumers and the associated revenues they are allowed to collect for the eight-year period from 1.4.2015 to 31.3.2023.
BT PLC is upgrading their entire UK telecommunications network to an Internet Protocol based system called BT21CN (21st Century Networks). BT21CN is not compliant with the requirements for UK Power Networks tele-protection services which currently operate over BT circuits. UK Power Networks are establishing a self-build fibre and leased dark fibre telecoms network to address issues that have arisen due to BT21CN.
