Agenda

Option for applying a consistent methodology for the calculation of security / termination amounts for PARCA Phase 2

Rationale

Calculation for Entry and Exit

Phasing of Security

Funding

Examples

Funding / Charging impact

Why consider a change in the approach?

This option is based on a single revenue driver

Based on RIIO-T1 rules for additional funding allowances

To provide a consistent approach for all Applicants irrespective of whether investment is needed

Divorces costs from security and moving to capacity based calculation

Provides one method of calculation based on capacity

Familiar calculation used in User Commitment

Calculation of Security Amount - Entry

Based on User Commitment principles already established

For Entry

Total PARCA Security Amount Entry (£) = (PARCAEnind1 / 100 x Qen1) + (PARCAEnind2 /100 x Qen2) + (PARCAEnind3 / 100 x Qen3) + (PARCAEnind4 / 100 x Qen4)……+ (PARCAEnindn / 100 x Qenn)

Where:

PARCAEnind = the indicative clearing price for each individual quarter for the Quarterly NTS Entry Capacity requested for Quarters 1 to n where n is the last quarter of capacity requested and confirmed by the PARCA Applicant.

Qen = total Quarterly NTS Entry Capacity quantity requested in the PARCA for each day for each quarter, for the first quarter up to and including the last quarter, n, for which capacity is requested.

n = a maximum of 32 quarters

Calculation of Security Amount - Exit

Based on User Commitment principles already established

For Exit

Total PARCA Security Amount Exit (£) =

PARCAExind / 100 x Qex x (365*4+1)

Where:

PARCAExind = the indicative NTS Exit Capacity price (p/kWh/Day) for the relevant Enduring Annual NTS Exit (Flat) Capacity at the NTS Exit Point included in the Phase 1 PARCA Works Report. (Note: This price may differ from the actual price determined at a later date and used to calculate actual transportation charges)

Qex = the maximum amount of Enduring Annual NTS Exit (Flat) Capacity to be Reserved by the PARCA Applicant (kWh/Day) as specified in the Phase 1 PARCA Works Report

Security Amount - Phasing

The Security Amount phasing required to be put in place the PARCA Applicant will be over a maximum of [four] years and will be based on the following cumulative profile:

Year1 = [25%] x Security Amount

Year2 = [50%] x Security Amount

Year3 = [75%] x Security Amount

Year4 = [100%] x Security Amount

Where

Year1 = the financial year (1 April to 31 March) in which the PARCA is signed and progression into Phase 2 is confirmed

Page 7: PARCA Security and Termination Amounts

Security Amount - Phasing

Security will only be required up to Capacity Allocation.

Should Phase 2 complete earlier than [four] years then only the amount up to that point will be required as security

E.g. if Allocation of capacity took place in Year 3, then at that point in time the security will equal [75%] and the additional amount for Year 4 will not be required.

If Phase 2 goes beyond [four] years the security will remain at 100% until allocation

Upon Capacity Allocation the requirement to put in place security for Phase 2 will cease and existing UNC requirements are applied

Page 8: PARCA Security and Termination Amounts

Security Amount – Providing Cover

PARCA Applicants will be required to post security to cover the Security Amount

Security can be provided in accordance with existing UNC requirements

In the event of termination, the value of the security amount will be invoiced to the PARCA Applicant

In the event of non payment, security can be used

Page 9: PARCA Security and Termination Amounts

Funding

Where investment is required this would follow the existing RIIO-T1 revenue driver timescales

20% of the value of the Revenue Driver in Year T-2

80% of the value of the Revenue Driver in Year T-1

To implement this would require some changes to ensure:

That there is minimal impact on Industry charges overall

National Grid’s Allowed Revenue can be amended to be kept neutral in the event of a Termination
