- Additional information
- This report was written by Kemp at the request and with the financial support of the Technology Strategy Board. It was peer reviewed by a group of 9 industry experts with representatives of the Government Office for Science, DECC and OFGEM (see report p2 for contact details). It finds that a private sector zero-carbon electricity network will require a structure unlike that established when the industry was privatised – especially, the need for a systems authority to ensure the components work together. It was a key project input in TSB’s Future Power Systems Architecture project (see section 17.2 in https://es.catapult.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/FPSA-Main-Report.pdf).
