Ofgem sharpens rules for GB grid connections

Ofgem has updated its grid connection rules for the GB zone, Energy Live News reported. The regulator's move follows persistent pressure to clear a bloated connection queue and impose stricter milestones on applicants. No specific queue figures were published in the headline item, but the direction is tightening: projects that miss progression gates face earlier termination.

Separately, Aurora Energy Research published analysis arguing that TNUoS charging uncertainty has grown materially and now represents a measurable investment risk for generators and storage assets in the GB zone. TNUoS locational signals have shifted repeatedly in recent years, complicating long-run revenue stacking for projects that carry network charge exposure.

In the Danish zone, Energinet released version 6 of its NC RFG national requirements for power plant grid connection. The update aligns domestic rules with the EU network code framework. Per Energinet's publication, version 6 supersedes the previous iteration; specific technical threshold changes were not detailed in the headline item.
