DCC Price Control decision: regulatory year 2023 to 2024

Share the page

In November 2024, we consulted on our proposals for the Data Communications Company (DCC) Price Control submission for the Regulatory Year 2023 to 2024 (RY23/24), along with our assessment of DCC’s performance and its Baseline Margin and External Contract Gain Share applications.  

This document sets out the decisions, and reasons for them, on DCC’s costs and performance, as well as DCC’s applications to adjust its Baseline Margin and External Contract Gain Share values under the Licence. This decision recognises responses we received to the consultation and any further information made available to us during the consultation window. 

Alongside this document we publish Notice of our Price Control Decisions, Determinations and Direction relating to the calculation of Allowed Revenue set out in the Price Control Conditions in the Smart Meter Communications Licence.
