The Hinkley Connection Project is led by National Grid Electricity Transmission (NGET), the electricity transmission owner in England and Wales. Ofgem, as the independent energy regulator, is responsible for the regulation of network projects. NGET sets the associated allowances, timelines and incentives through the electricity transmission network price control.
