MP180 Market-wide Half-Hourly Settlement Implementation

As part of the implementation of the Market-wide Half-Hourly Settlement (MHHS) programme, all programme participants will be required to comply with the new detailed obligations to be set out in section C12 of the Balancing and Settlement Code (BSC).
Without the addition to the SEC of specific wording which obligates SECCo to comply with the changes to the BSC, there is no legal requirement for SECCo or SECAS (as non-BSC Parties) to support the implementation of MHHS, and no contractual recourse if their duties are not met.

This modification proposes to insert a new clause into the SEC to place an obligation on SECCo to comply with the obligations insofar as these apply to it under BSC section C12 ‘Market-wide Half-Hourly Settlement Implementation’.
