Heat networks regulation: authorisation conditions and guidance on measures to mitigate the risk and impact of financial failure
Continuity arrangements
Summary
This section outlines our requirement for relevant authorised persons to have a continuity plan in place.
Details
The continuity plan would support the orderly transfer of the heat network authorisation to a successor and would contain details on the methodology for gathering outlined information for this process.
We are proposing to introduce an authorisation condition on ‘Continuity arrangements’, that alongside guidance will outline the necessary requirements. Due to the diversity of the sector we do not expect a 'one size fits all' approach and expect plans to vary in scale.
