This BSCP defines the key interfaces, interdependencies and timetable for the Registration of Parties in the Central Registration Service (CRS) and Exit Procedures.

Specifically it covers:

(a) Party Registration;

(b) Changes to Party Registration Data, including registration and deregistration of participation capacities;

(d) Expulsion from the Code;

(e) Requests for additional Supplier IDs;

(f) Requests to remove additional Supplier IDs

(g) Party Novation.

The relationship of this BSCP to other processes under the Code is illustrated in the Accession and Registration Route Map at the end of Section 1.5 (see Figure 1).

Where a Party has access to the Self-Service Gateway and an equivalent online form is provided, the Party may use the online form as an alternative to the paper forms defined in this BSCP.

Where a Party has provided data using the Self-Service Gateway, BSCCo may use the service to validate and confirm the input data or to request additional data. Where this is the case, these online transactions will represent a valid equivalent to the transactions defined in this BSCP.

Please note that there will not always be a one-to-one equivalence between the data collected via the Self-Service Gateway and the paper forms defined in this BSCP. For example, data collected in one paper form, may be collected by more than one online form. Conversely, a single online form may collect data from more than one paper form.

All references to the provision of information using BSCP forms in this Procedure, should be construed as provision either by a paper form (including an electronic version of the form provided via email) or via the Self-Service Gateway. References to the CRA, including checks performed by the CRA, may include the Self-Service Gateway as applicable.

1.2 Main Users of this Procedure and their Responsibilities

This BSCP should be used by the following:

(a) Parties;

(b) BSCCo;

(d) The Panel (in the event of expulsion or withdrawal of a Party from the Code);

(e) The National Electricity Transmission System Operator (NETSO) (in respect to Party registration and withdrawals);

(f) Central Registration Agent (CRA);

(g) The Funds Administration Agent (FAA) (in respect of fund administration requirements for new Trading Parties).

1.3 Balancing and Settlement Provisions

This BSCP should be read in conjunction with the Code and in particular Section A.

1.5 Description of the Registration Route Map

This BSCP covers the registration process for new Party Applicants up to the achieved status of “Registered Party” as detailed in the Accession and Registration Route Map, Figure 1 (at end of this Section). After completing the processes in Section 4.1, a new Party registering in accordance with this BSCP will not have the ability to trade, only to receive reports from BSCCo and BSC Agents.

Trading Party or LDSO¹ status is awarded to a registered Party providing they have also completed other applicable registrations or Entry Processes. These processes are detailed in the following BSCPs:

BSCP15	BM Unit Registration
BSCP20	Registration of Metering Systems for Central Volume Allocation
BSCP71	Submission of ECVNs and MVRNs
BSCP501	Supplier Meter Registration Service
BSCP509	Changes to Market Domain Data
BSCP515	Licensed Distribution

1.5.1 Physical Trading Party Branch of Route Map

After a Party has registered their BM Units, Metering Systems and the associated Aggregation Rules that Party is then able to trade in the Balancing Mechanism, but could not submit its contract position to the ECVAA. In this scenario if the Party were to Import or Export energy at volumes outside the balancing mechanism and without supporting contract notification, it would pay imbalance charges on the Metered Volumes.

After registration of BM Units, Metering Systems and Aggregation Rules the Party then appoints MVRNAs and ECVNAs. The Party is then able to fully participate in contracted Export or Import of energy at Boundary Points and participate in the Balancing Mechanism.

1.5.1A Virtual Trading Party Branch of Route Map

After a Virtual Trading Party has registered their Secondary BM Units as Baselined BM Units, has allocated MSID Pairs to those Secondary BM Units and has appointed MVRNAs and / or ECVNAs, the Virtual Trading Party is then able to fully participate in Wholesale Market Activities. Virtual Trading Parties may be party to an ECVN and may be the Subsidiary Party (but not the Lead Party) in a MVRN.

1.5.2 Non-Physical Trading Party Branch of Route Map

If a Party appoints a MVRNA or ECVNA without registering any BM Units, the Party is able to trade contracts for energy, i.e. buy and sell energy, but not Export or Import energy at Boundary Points, as the Party is not responsible for any Metering Systems.

1.5.3 Not Shown in Route Map

To avoid over-complication the route map does not show the options available to communicate with the NETSO that affect a Party’s ability to submit Bids and Offers, and BM Unit Physical Notifications. These are addressed in BSCP15.

This BSCP does not indicate the timescales required to complete the associated procedures to achieve the participation capacity of a Trading Party (including a Supplier). Completion of the associated BSCPs may take between one and four months, depending on the participation capacity, the type of trading required, and the capacity and complexity of the systems being commissioned. Party Applicants should read the associated BSCPs to ensure that they begin the process sufficiently early to achieve their desired participation capacity.

1.6 Supplier IDs

1.6.1 Increasing the Number of Supplier IDs

Parties may increase their number of Supplier IDs by:

(a) Requesting additional Supplier IDs. A maximum of 2 operational additional Supplier IDs can be requested per Party using this BSCP.

(b) Gaining Panel approval. If the maximum number of Supplier IDs has been reached, the decision to grant the request is at the Panel’s discretion based on:

Any prevailing system constraints
Use of the Supplier ID is for innovative purpose within the market

(c) Merger and/or acquisition. The number of Supplier IDs obtained in this way is unlimited; however these Supplier IDs will be obtained through the Transfer of Supplier ID process (Change of SVA BM Unit Ownership) under BSCP15.

1.6.2 Removal of Supplier IDs

Any Party wishing to remove one or more of its Supplier IDs will use this BSCP, however a Supplier’s last remaining Supplier ID can only be removed by following the process in BSCP15 (Deregistration of Supplier BM Units following cessation of Supplier) and deregistering the Supplier Role using form BSCP65/01 or the Self-Service Gateway in accordance with the ‘Changes to Party Registration Data’ process in this BSCP.

1 A Distribution System Operator (DSO) who is (or intends to be) the holder of a Distribution Licence is known as a Licensed Distribution System Operator (LDSO). See Appendix 1 for more detail on the difference between the two terms and the implications for BSCP65.

2 Authorisations are required for submission of Party Registration Applications and Funds Accession forms or their online equivalents.

3 Applicants should note that registration of a Supplier role in BSC Central Systems must be coordinated with registration in MDD. The effective from date of the Supplier participation capacity and BM Unit Go-Live Dates in CRA must match the dates registered in MDD for SVAA and CRA systems to interface effectively. If the applicant is registering as an LDSO then the effective from date of the LDSO role in BSC Central Systems must be the same as the registration of the LDSO role in MDD.

4 Applicants should note that registration of a Supplier role in BSC Central Systems must be coordinated with registration in MDD. The effective from date of the Supplier participation capacity and BM Unit Go-Live Dates in CRA must match the dates registered in MDD for SVAA and CRA systems to interface effectively. If the applicant is registering as an LDSO then the effective from date of the LDSO role in BSC Central Systems must be the same as the registration of the LDSO role in MDD.

5 If Party is registering as a Trading Party for the first time, CRA allocates Energy Accounts and Party must complete and submit Funds Accession Form using BSCP301.

6 De-registration of the Supplier in MDD will need to be coordinated with the deregistration of the Supplier in CRS, along with any BM Units still associated with the Supplier ID. The Party is responsible for ensuring that all corresponding changes to MDD are completed in the required timescales, and other relevant SVA Procedures complied with. If the Party intends to cease trading in the participation capacity of “Supplier”, they must first request the CRA to set the “Effective To Date” for their BM Units and participation capacity as “Supplier” to a future Settlement Date, but not less than 20 WD from the date of notification.

7 For the avoidance of doubt, the notes included here do not apply to DSOs.

8 The organisations and BSC Agents consulted as part of this step may vary depending upon the participation capacity or capacities of the Party.

9 The Authority is not obliged to reply to this request. The onus will be on the Withdrawing Party to provide the relevant confirmation.

10 Panel Decision may be conditional until BSCCo receives confirmation that the Authority has revoked the withdrawing applicant’s license or transferred as appropriate.

11 Where the credit cover is held as a Letter of Credit (LoC) or Approved Insurance Product (AIP) the Party must make sure that a new LoC or AIP has been provided in the new name with the same effective from date as the Withdrawal Date.

12 Checks will be carried out against the provisions in Section A 5.1.3 of the Code at 5pm, 2 WD before the Withdrawal Date (the earliest Withdrawal Date will be after the Final Reconciliation Run for the last Settlement Day traded, and the corresponding Payment Date must have passed) to determine whether or not the Party is prevented from withdrawing from the Code. The Withdrawing Party should allow sufficient time for the completion of deregistrations and terminations as described in Appendix 3 of this document.

13 The organisations and BSC Agents consulted as part of this step may vary depending upon the participation capacity or participation capacities of the Party.

14 The Authority is not obliged to reply to this request. The onus is on the Party to provide any relevant proof.

15 Pursuant to Section M2.3.1A of the Code Parties in Default solely by virtue of Section H3.1.1(g) of the Code are entitled to apply for a reduction in the amount provided in their Letter of Credit and/or to withdraw cash it has deposited. Credit Cover reduction can only take place after it has been confirmed, as part of the final checks carried out 2 WD prior to the Withdrawal Date, that the Party is not prevented from withdrawing under A5.1.3 of the Code.

16 This process should not be used for the purposes of removing a Party’s final Supplier ID. This may be achieved by following the process in BSCP15/3.6 and de-registering the Supplier Role by completing form BSCP65/01 or its online equivalent.

17 Panel Decision may be conditional. BSCCo may not execute the Agreement of Novation of Contract for Parties wishing to participate in licensable activities until BSCCo receives confirmation that the Authority has granted the required Licence or Transfer of Licence to the Novation Applicant as appropriate.

18 Use for change of Party Name; a Party name should be a maximum of 30 alphanumeric characters. To change the name associated with an existing Party Agent ID, use BSCP71.

19 This field is not required for initial registration. CRA will update the Party name during the working hours of the Effective From Date specified on the form

20 The date of receipt of this Withdrawal Notice by BSCCo, pursuant to Section H9.2.2.

21 The Party that is transferring their Party ID.

22 The Party that will become responsible for the Party ID.

23 The expulsion will be effective (and you will cease to be a Party to the Code) from the end of the Withdrawal Date specified on this form.

24 This form cannot be used to de-register the last remaining Supplier ID and set of Base BM Units

25 Supplier ID limit is defined in BSCP65 1.6.1

26 In addition to their Market Participant ID, the LDSO applicant will have to provide BSCCo with details of their Distribution Licence, schedule of DUoS charges, REC Party and Qualification status as a distributor, and other details. The LDSO applicant will be assigned a unique LDSO Short Code by BSCCo in conjunction with the REC Code Manager and the Authority. One and only one LDSO Short Code will be allocated to each LDSO applicant.

27 This Party will not to be registered within Supplier Volume Allocation or Market Domain Data. Should the Party be registered in some other capacity, then this registration will not include the Role Codes of “R” or “P”.

28 Where appropriate

29 If applicable

30 Once these authorisations are cancelled, participants will be required to set up new ECVNA/MVRNA Authorisations to make any changes to notifications in place.

31 The Withdrawing Party must not have any ECVNA/MVRNA Authorisations or notifications in place beyond the Effective To Date of its Trading Party role
