<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 />

ETC 17: Environmental Discretionary Reward Scheme<br />

<strong>Draft</strong>ing status: Current working draft provided in Supporting Document 1.<br />

2.88. The purpose of this proposed new condition is to establish arrangements for<br />

the Environmental Discretionary Reward (EDR) Scheme, <strong>and</strong> to determine the<br />

amount of incentive the Licensee shall receive in relation to its performance.<br />

2.89. As part of <strong>RIIO</strong> we have consulted on introducing EDR Scheme to encourage<br />

the Licensee to achieve high st<strong>and</strong>ards in environmental management as well as<br />

facilitate the industry to move towards a low carbon energy system.<br />

2.90. The effect of this condition is to make a positive adjust ment to the Licensee‟s<br />

revenue if they meet the performance criteria set by the EDR Scheme. For further<br />

information on the EDR Scheme Guidance, which will cover the performance<br />

categories, criteria as well as arrangements relating to administration, governance<br />

<strong>and</strong> revision of the EDR Scheme please see chapter 8. 41<br />

2.91. Further work is required ahead of the Second Consultation to develop the EDR<br />

Scheme guidance document in further detail.<br />

ETC 18: Enhancement to Pre-existing Infrastructure in National Parks <strong>and</strong><br />

Areas of Outst<strong>and</strong>ing Natural Beauty<br />

<strong>Draft</strong>ing status: Current working draft provided in Supporting Document 1.<br />

2.92. The purpose of this proposed new condition is to specify visual amenity<br />

outputs the Licensee will be required to deliver in relation to existing transmission<br />

infrastructure in National Parks <strong>and</strong> Areas of Outst<strong>and</strong>ing Natural Beauty. The<br />

condition also establishes provisions for the Authority to determine the amount of<br />

allowed expenditure the Licensee shall incur in the delivery of such outputs as a<br />

PCFM 42 Variable Value into the PCFM.<br />

2.93. The effect of this condition is to enable the Licensee to request the Authority<br />

to determine the allowed expenditure in relation to specific visual amenity outputs in<br />

designated areas.<br />
