The Data Communications Company (DCC) manages communications and data transfer service for smart metering. This decision sets out who will operate the Centralised Registration Service (CRS).
Background
In May 2024, we published a consultation as part of phase 2 (detailed design) of our review of the regulatory arrangements for the DCC. We consulted on the governance arrangements and the CRS. The consultation presented our analysis and findings to date and invited stakeholder views to inform our way forward.
Our decision
The decision document sets out our conclusions on the Centralised Registration Service (switching).
Next steps
We will publish our decision on the remaining elements of the consultation, including:
- composition of the DCC Board
- board appointment and requirements
- incentivisation of the DCC Board, executive leadership, and key staff
- interim changes to governance
We expect to publish two further consultations during phase 2 of the DCC review:
- the determination of allowed revenue (cost control)
- the future role of the DCC, objectives and operating model
