Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:
To ask His Majesty's Government when Ofgem intend to publish the National Energy System Operator's final report on the operation and management of the electricity system in the week of 22 June; whether the report will be published in full, subject to the redaction of the names of individuals; and whether the report will be reviewed by engineers who are independent of both Ofgem and the National Energy System Operator.
Decisions on the timing and final content of publication are matters for Ofgem, which has stated that it intends to publish its findings no later than 31 January 2027.
The Government expects Ofgem and the National Energy System Operator (NESO) to work with urgency to reach and publish its final conclusions as soon as possible.
Ofgem is leading the review in its capacity as the independent energy regulator and has also brought external engineering experts into the Oversight Group for review.
