Summary

DESNZ has launched an open consultation on proposed reforms to electricity market siting and investment levers under the Reformed National Pricing (RNP) programme, which succeeds the Review of Electricity Market Arrangements (REMA). The consultation, published 21 April 2026, closes at 11:59pm on 2 June 2026 and seeks views on implementation of siting and investment lever reforms described in Chapter 2 of the RNP Delivery Plan. Stakeholders may respond online via Citizenspace.

Why this matters

Energy generators, infrastructure developers, and investors in GB electricity markets should review the Chapter 2 proposals before the 2 June 2026 response deadline, as siting and investment lever reforms under RNP could materially affect project economics and market participation strategies.

What changed

The consultation introduces DESNZ's proposed siting and investment lever reforms for the electricity market under the RNP programme, which replaces REMA. This is the formal step in the RNP delivery plan where stakeholders are invited to provide feedback before implementation.\n\nAffected parties — primarily energy companies, investors, and developers involved in electricity generation and infrastructure siting — should review the proposals in Chapter 2 of the RNP Delivery Plan and submit responses by the 2 June 2026 deadline. The reforms may alter how electricity generation sites are selected and how investment incentives are structured, with implications for project finance and market entry.
