As part of the EMR Delivery Plan published and consulted on July 2013, the UK Government needs to set a reliability standard for the GB market, used to inform the amount of capacity to contract in any future Capacity Market.
In this project a detailed examination of reliability standards in other jurisdictions was performed; focusing not only on the standard, but how it is set, who governs the standard and what evaluation process it undergoes.
