The Grid Code Review Panel (GCRP) is made up of an independent panel chair, a panel technical secretary and code administrator representative (provided by us), representatives from the authority, the BSC and National Grid ESO, network operators, suppliers, offshore and onshore transmission licensees, generators and a consumer representative. In short, anyone in the industry with an interest in the development of the Grid Code.

It meets every month but will also meet on an ad hoc basis if needed. And its function is to:

  • Evaluate and administer amendments to the code
  • Review any consequences of those amendments
  • Administer the code itself
  • Establish joint working arrangements
  • Prioritise modifications

The Grid Code Review Panel election results

The Grid Code Review Panel elections take place every two years to determine the elected Grid Code Review Panel members and alternates. The current panel term is for the following period: 1 January 2023–31 December 2024. 

Due to the resignation of the Offshore Transmission Licensee Panel Member who had been appointed through the 2022 Grid Code Review Panel election, an election had to be re-run in 2023 to fill this panel member seat.
