Description of the procurement
The CER regulates the level of revenue which the electricity transmission system operator (TSO), the electricity distribution system operator (DSO), the electricity transmission asset owner (TAO) and the electricity distribution asset owner (DAO) (collectively the “network companies”) can recover from customers to cover their respective costs.

The CER has carried out four price reviews to date, the most recent for the 2016-2020 period (PR4).
As part of PR4 the CER aims to amend the existing reporting, monitoring and incentive frameworks. In particular, in its decisions on transmission and distribution revenue for PR4 (CER/15/296 and CER/15/295 respectively).
