<p>Ofgem’s Targeted Charging Review is seeking to ensure all parties connected to
the electricity network make a fair contribution to its fixed costs. As was outlined
in the ‘After the Trilemma’ speech of 15 November 2018, it is important that we develop
an energy system that discourages free riding and ensures a fair distribution of such
costs.</p><p> </p><p>Network charging is a matter for Ofgem as the independent regulator,
and decisions on its Targeted Charging Review are for it to make. However, Government
is working to understand the policy implications of Ofgem’s review proposals across
a broad range of interests. The analysis which Ofgem has published as part of its
recently closed consultation shows that the proposals could affect investment decisions
across a number of technologies, but no final decisions have been taken on timetable
or other aspects.</p>
