Any information shared may be subject to requests under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) or Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (EIR) and may be released unless an exemption or exception applies under the relevant legislation. Please note that Pre-Tender Market Engagement events are now complete. The PIN has been re-opened to attach a number of documents in response to questions from the market and informing the market on the chosen route to market: RM6313 Demand Management & Renewables DPS.
