Determination of a further Within Period Adjustment request made by National Grid IFA2

Share the page

Ofgem’s cap and floor regime sets a yearly maximum (cap) and minimum (floor) level for the revenues that the interconnector licensee can earn over a 25-year period. Usually, revenues generated by the interconnector are compared against the cap and floor levels over five-year assessment periods. Top-up payments are made to the interconnector licensee if revenues are lower than the floor; and similarly, the licensee pays revenues in excess of the cap to consumers. A Within Period Adjustment (WPA) may be requested by a licensee, enabling payments to be made before the end of the five-year assessment period.

This publication details our determination of the WPA requested by National Grid IFA 2 Limited (NGIFA2) with respect to the IFA2 Interconnector. The Relevant Partial Assessment Period for this WPA request is 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2023.
