Ofwat streamlines process for self-supply applications
Ofwat has announced changes to streamline and simplify the process for those interested in becoming a self-supplier, including reducing the application fee from £5,250 to £3,000 and the timescale for Ofwat to process applications.
Ofwat believes the process could be better tailored to reflect the differences in the information needed to assess self-supply applications. Previously, applicants applying to self-supply had to go through a process very similar to the standard WSSL applications process.
Following consultation, Ofwat is introducing a modified application process for business customers applying for WSSLs limited to self-supply and this is now separate from the standard WSSL application process.
The changes come into effect immediately.
