Reconciliation via a reference price methodology and a
complementary revenue recovery charge
Reconciliation of the regulatory account through use of the applied RPM is an
ex-post process. The TAR NC foresees an option to apply a CRRC at non-IPs. The
example below shows how to use such an option.
The only current approach is in Great Britain where capacity-based transmission
tariffs are set before the tariff period, assuming that all technical capacity will be con-
tracted. Since the actually contracted capacity never coincides with the technical
capacity, the CRRC is then adjusted within the tariff period in order to mitigate any
future under-recovery. The CRRC can be set to zero if there is no under-recovery in
future.
Figure 24 shows the process of revenue reconciliation.
