Code Artefacts


Over the past 18 months, the MHHS Code Workstream has released several tranches of Code Artefacts for industry consultation.

The Code Drafting Plan which you can view below, provides an overview of the Code Drafting activities and timeframes, with updates provided through the Programme newsletter (The Clock) and through Programme Working Groups. 

Code Drafting Plan

Following each consultation, the Programme’s code drafters reviewed and responded to consultation comments. The workstream is at the Consistency Check stage, which means that the Artefacts produced were cross-checked to ensure that all Design requirements were correctly translated into the Balancing & Settlement Code (BSC), Retail Energy Code (REC) and Distribution Connection and Use of System Agreement (DCUSA).

Following the Consistency Check consultation, the Artefacts will be finalised and presented to the Code Drafting Working Group (CDWG) in August 2024. Following CDWG, the Artefacts will be recommended to the Cross-Code Advisory Group (CCAG) for approval in August.

When Code Artefacts are approved by CCAG, they will be published on the Finalisation page of this website (not yet published).

You can view supporting and control documents from the Code Artefacts Consistency Check page of this website by scrolling down to the Controls library.

For transparency and audit purposes, you can access the historic tranches of the Code Artefacts from the relevant links below, including those that are part of the current consistency check consultation:
