I0228: ECOES API for Export MPAN Creation at Scale

REC (Retail Energy Code)·notice·LOW·22 Nov 2024·source document

What is being proposed

We want to exponentially scale our export portfolio and offer several new export products and low-carbon tech to new and existing customers, at present, we average 5k export MPAN creation requests per month but expect to scale this to 10k per month over the next six months. Under the current ECOES export MPAN creation architecture (MPAN Requests), a user can create an export MPAN on a one-to-one level which prohibits scaling of new export products for our customers. We have explored batch processes with the DNOs but have been categorically told 'No' from the largest DNO (23.78% of our export MPAN requests) to a batch process as they have batch capability on their side of ECOES. Therefore, we require an API to ECOES that enables an energy supplier to create an export MPAN at scale
