Reach UK_OFGEM_LICENCE readiness without rebuilding your policy programme

The Office of Gas and Electricity Markets (Ofgem) is the GB energy regulator. Licences (supply, generation, distribution, transmission) impose conditions covering market conduct, consumer protection, financial resilience, network operation + sustainability. Licence Modifications + Statutory Consultations evolve standards continuously. Significant Code Reviews + RIIO price controls (electricity + gas distribution + transmission) drive utility operating models. Enforcement via Provisional Orders, financial penalties + licence revocation. Quick Policy maps UK_OFGEM_LICENCE into the policy families, controls, and evidence your team needs — and keeps it current between audits.
