Overview
Licence condition 35 of the Distribution System Operator (DSO) Licence requires that ‘The Licensee shall prepare and submit to the Commission for approval a plan to be known and referred to as the Retail Market System Development Plan, for the development of the retail market systems over the following five calendar years’. This plan sets out ESB Networks’ five-year development of the retail market systems, in accordance with the DSO licence and obligations as Distribution System Operator (DSO). It outlines the direction required to maintain robust market operations while enabling the transformation of the retail market systems over the 2026–2030 period. The information contained within this Retail Market System Development Plan is of most relevance to the CRU and Market Participants in the Irish Retail Electricity Market who will be familiar with the retail market design, as well as the governance and change management processes that support the operation and development of the retail market. ESB Networks welcomes feedback from interested stakeholders.
