Regulated Markets
For an energy network, the RIIO price control shapes the business for years: what you can spend, what you have committed to deliver, and what you must report to demonstrate it. Getting the plan right and then delivering against it is one of the most consequential things a network does. We support.
PEF Consulting Partners supports network companies through price control cycles with regulator facing experience, including the compliance and enforcement lead role on Ofgem’s Energy Bills Support Scheme and consultation work on the energy price cap. We help you evidence what you claim, because that is what the regulator tests.
Building a price control submission that is ambitious, deliverable and defensible, with the delivery plan and cost evidence behind it robust enough to withstand regulatory challenge.
Turning price control commitments into a delivery programme with clear ownership, so the things you agreed to do actually get done and can be shown to have been done.
The reporting infrastructure to demonstrate delivery against commitments and outputs, built for repeatability and auditability rather than assembled each period by hand.
An evidence based view for your board and stakeholders on whether commitments are on track and whether the reporting stands up. See independent programme assurance.

Yes. Much of the value is in delivering and evidencing commitments across the period, not only in preparing the plan.
We bring senior people who have delivered exactly this at scale. Honest advice, and accountability for the outcome.
