In December 2024, the National Energy System Operator (NESO) submitted reform proposals to Ofgem aimed at transforming the electricity connections process to prioritise projects ready to deliver clean power for Great Britain by 2030 (Connections Reform). Connections Reform has now been approved by Ofgem and introduced into industry standard licence conditions and the Connection and Use of System Code (CUSC).
As of 23.59 on Tuesday 26 August, the NESO/DNO evidence submission window for CMP435 is now closed.
Further information on what happens next in the Connections Reform process is available at: Connections Reform | National Energy System Operator.
Important note: Please bear with us while we work on updating our Connections pages to reflect the new connections process.
