England, Wales and Scotland

F1(1)

The Authority must take no account of any bid made by a licensed supplier which—

(a)

is not connected to a GSP group that is specified in the eligible generator’s project information in relation to the generating station specified in that project information; or

(b)

was submitted before a revised OLR notice was issued in accordance with paragraph 3(1A) or 3(2)(c).

(2)

The Authority must—

(a)

identify the amount of the management fee which, in accordance with relevant supply licence conditions, was proposed in each bid submitted by a licensed supplier; and

(b)

draw up a list which ranks all such amounts in order, from lowest to highest.

(3)

The Authority must select from the list drawn up under sub-paragraph (2)(b)—

(a)

the licensed supplier which proposed the lowest amount as the successful bidder for one of the BPPAs subject to auction; and

(b)

the licensed supplier which proposed the next lowest amount as the successful bidder for another of the BPPAs subject to auction,

and so on until a successful bidder has been selected for all of the remaining BPPAs subject to auction.

(4)

Where the same amount of management fee is proposed by more than one licensed supplier who would otherwise be selected under sub-paragraph (3) in respect of a BPPA, the Authority must—

(a)

select as the successful bidder for that BPPA the licensed supplier whose bid the Authority received first; and

(b)

if another BPPA remains to be considered by the Authority, select as the successful bidder for that other BPPA the licensed supplier whose bid the Authority received second,

and so on until all of the licensed suppliers which proposed that amount of management fee have been selected.

(5)

Within one day of the close of the auction, the Authority must give a notice to—

(a)

each licensed supplier which is selected under this paragraph, stating that the licensed supplier has been selected as the successful bidder in respect of a BPPA;

(b)

all other licensed suppliers which bid in the auction, stating that they have not been selected; and

(c)

the eligible generator, stating the name of each licensed supplier selected and in each case enclosing the signed copies of the BPPA which the licensed supplier provided to the Authority in accordance with relevant supply licence conditions.
