TNUoS Tariff Model
(DCLF ICRP Transport Model)
We publish the DC Load Flow Investment Cost Related Pricing (DCLF ICRP) Transport Model which allows users to undertake their own sensitivity analysis of generation and demand tariffs under different scenarios.
If you'd like a copy of the DCLF ICRP Transport Model, contact us.
For more detailed information on the DCLF ICRP, please see Chapter 2 of The Statement of the Use of System Charging Methodology in Section 14 of the CUSC.
Get involved in our TNUoS Tariff Model Training sessions
We run regular in-house training sessions, to give participants hands-on experience at changing the model inputs and generating their own scenarios.
Who are the sessions aimed at?
Users who have some understanding of the TNUoS tariffs, and have little or no previous experience at using the DCLF-ICRP model.
Our sessions run from 10:00am-2:00pm.
