<strong>RIIO</strong>-<strong>T1</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>GD1</strong>: <strong>Draft</strong> <strong>licence</strong> <strong>conditions</strong> <strong>–</strong> <strong>First</strong> <strong>informal</strong> <strong>licence</strong> drafting<br />
consultation<br />
Special Condition D9 (J7 for SPTL <strong>and</strong> SHETL): Capital Expenditure Incentive<br />
<strong>and</strong> Safety Net) [ETC 70]<br />
<strong>Draft</strong>ing status: Proposal to delete.<br />
2.55. TPCR4 <strong>and</strong> TPCR4 Adapted Rollover capital expenditure incentive revenue<br />
adjust ment (sometimes referred to as Work in Progress (WIP)) will form part of the<br />
calculations made in ETC 64: Legacy price control adjust ments <strong>–</strong> Transmission<br />
Owner. As such, any adjust ment to allowed revenue will be via the Annual Iteration<br />
of the Price Control Financial Model (PCFM).<br />
2.56. We expect the capital expenditure incentive revenue adjust ments to be<br />
calculated in line with the policy set out in the TPCR4 29 <strong>and</strong> Rollover 30 Final Proposals<br />
documents, <strong>and</strong> based on the approach set out in <strong>licence</strong> <strong>conditions</strong> 31 that were in<br />
force at 31 March 2012.<br />
2.57. We therefore propose to delete this condition. The close out of this scheme<br />
will be h<strong>and</strong>led through the new special condition ETC 64: Legacy price control<br />
adjust ments <strong>–</strong> Transmission Owner.<br />
Special Condition D11 (J12 for SPTL <strong>and</strong> SHETL): Adjustment to the<br />
Transmission Network Revenue Restriction due to Transmission Asset<br />
Owner Incentives [ETC 52]<br />
<strong>Draft</strong>ing status: We will provide a working draft in the Second Consultation.<br />
2.58. SpCs D11 (NGET) <strong>and</strong> J12 (SHETL <strong>and</strong> SPETL) are the existing SpCs that<br />
govern the Transmission Invest ment Incentives (TII) framework (the TII condition).<br />
This section covers the proposed changes to the TII <strong>licence</strong> condition for all three<br />
electricity transmission Licensees.<br />
2.59. The TII condition was introduced into the <strong>licence</strong> on 1 April 2010 to reflect the<br />
TII framework for providing project-specific, interim funding for critical large-scale<br />
invest ments within TPCR4. The TII condition was subsequently modified f or<br />
application in the TPCR4 rollover year 2012-13.<br />
2.60. The TII condition provides for cost recovery by the three electricity<br />
transmission Licensees in relation to specific pre-construction <strong>and</strong> construction works<br />
for which the Authority determines capital expenditure allowances covering planned<br />
expenditure in one or more financial years up to <strong>and</strong> including 201/13. It also<br />
includes mechanisms for adjusting allowances, <strong>and</strong> associated deliverables, <strong>and</strong> for<br />
