RIIO Gas Transmission Workshop - 5th SeptSupplementary information Hypothetical examples to illustrate the impact of combining the constraint management incentive schemes
Introduction • Purpose of these examples is to show how the decisions regarding managing constraints on the system would be affected by adopting NGG’s proposed combined scheme for constraint management compared with the current arrangements • NGG proposed that sharing factors should be equal to the RIIO-T1 efficiency rate applied in the totex incentive mechanism • The examples include “NGG cost” and “Shipper cost” where “Shipper cost” relates to the generality of Users, rather than a specific User • These examples are for illustrative purposes only (i.e. the costs indicated are entirely fictional) and assume that the actions each have the same effect on the system (i.e. there is no consideration that some actions be more effective than others) • Note that the resultant costs/revenues (after application of the sharing factor) would be subject to the appropriate cap/collar
Example 1 Bi-directional site (Storage) (not entering or withdrawing) System Entry Point Low pressure NGG incentivised by lowest NGG cost System Exit Point (CCGT) Current arrangements Proposed arrangements Shipper cost reduced under proposed arrangements
Example 2 System Exit Point (DN Offtake) System Entry Point High pressure NGG incentivised by lowest NGG cost System Exit Point (CCGT) Current arrangements Proposed arrangements Shipper cost reduced under proposed arrangements
Example 3 System Exit Point (DN Offtake) System Entry Point NTS is long (over-supplied) High pressure NGG incentivised by lowest NGG cost / highest revenue Bi-directional site (Interconnector) Current arrangements Proposed arrangements Shipper revenue increased under proposed arrangements
Example 4 System Exit Point over-running (DN Offtake) System Entry Point Low pressure NGG incentivised by lowest NGG cost System Exit Point (CCGT) Current arrangements Proposed arrangements * Note all costs associated with Exit actions to manage a constraint caused by the over-running user are passed to that over-running user (TPD J7.4) hence are not borne by the generality of shippers Shipper cost unchanged under proposed arrangements
Example 5 System Exit Point (DN Offtake) System Entry Point Low pressure NGG incentivised by lowest NGG cost System Exit Point (CCGT) Current arrangements Proposed arrangements * Note the change from Example 4 is that there is no over-running user and therefore costs are not entirely borne by a particular shipper Shipper cost increased under proposed arrangements
