• The BSC is not NETA
• How is it supposed to work?
• How has it worked?
– Prices, volumes, changes
• Impact on/of the market
• Security of Supply
• NETA to BETTA There are two T’s in BETTA

Problems of the Pool
• One price• Mechanism• Manipulable• CompulsoryProduction
set the price DemandTook the price
• Barrier
Also inherently difficult to change
![Page 6: Market Integration: England, Wales and Scotland](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062409/568148f3550346895db6117e/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Exchanges
• 2 Exchanges – UKPX & APX
– Typical Exchange Volumes
* Contracts * Volume
• Standardise Contract Form – GTMA
• Bilateral
• Volume in BM – 2%
• SO can buy forward

Transmission & Cross Border
• UoS Charging - Slightly zonal
- Developing TTR
• Interconnectors - Auction for Capacity
- Trade at entry
• Connection - Shallow
![Page 9: Market Integration: England, Wales and Scotland](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062409/568148f3550346895db6117e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Why? The design intent of the BSC
• Replace the Pool
• Encourage bi-lateral trading
• Enable competition for Balancing Services
• Allocate costs of imbalance
• Responsive governance
• Get out of the way!

Volumes
• Imbalance volume ~2%
• Total notified contracts 3 times physical consumption
• Number of notifications 4.7 million* since Go live
* As at 09/06/03

Flexible?!
• 143 Proposed Modifications to the BSC
• 114 decisions made, 12 withdrawn
• Many already implemented
![Page 15: Market Integration: England, Wales and Scotland](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062409/568148f3550346895db6117e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Impact on the Market
• Low wholesale generation prices, but rising
(NETA plus )
• Some consolidation
• Vertical integration
• Industrial and commercial customers happy
• Doubts about pass through to domestic customers – more work on change of supplier in hand
![Page 16: Market Integration: England, Wales and Scotland](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062409/568148f3550346895db6117e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Impact of the Market
• BSC and NETA coped well with corporate failures and administration
• Credit arrangements well tested - robust but complex - Cash or LoC only; Credit Rating not accepted
• Security of Supply?
![Page 17: Market Integration: England, Wales and Scotland](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062409/568148f3550346895db6117e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Security of Supply
• This was examined carefully by a report to Government and by a recent White Paper by Government
• Security of Supply (generation) has been left to the market
• Government and Regulator have statutory responsibilities
• Some mothballing – No major permanent closures yet. SO caution
![Page 18: Market Integration: England, Wales and Scotland](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062409/568148f3550346895db6117e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
NETA to BETTA
• Working so well it is being rolled out to include Scotland
• There are two T’s in BETTA
British Electricity Trading and Transmission Arrangements
![Page 19: Market Integration: England, Wales and Scotland](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062409/568148f3550346895db6117e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

GB Settlement?
• BSC to GB BSC
• Extension of geographic scope
• Consequential changes only
• Still a significant piece of work for ELEXON
![Page 21: Market Integration: England, Wales and Scotland](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062409/568148f3550346895db6117e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Summary
• NETA has worked and delivered its design intent
• Recent reviews have identified no major changes
• Flexible governance has enabled beneficial change – more to come
• Roll out to GB – transmission issues still outstanding
BUT THE LIGHTS HAD BETTER STAY ON!
