IGT181: Revision of Virtual Last Resort User and Contingent Procurement of Supplier Demand Event Triggers

Summary

IGT UNC modification IGT181 proposes revising the triggers for Virtual Last Resort User events and Contingent Procurement of Supplier Demand events in the gas distribution network code. The modification is proceeding to workgroup development under the standard governance route. This addresses gas supply arrangements rather than electricity markets.
