2026-072 Future Price Control Frameworks

Description: This procurement is for support to help Ofgem develop its thinking on future network price control frameworks for the post-2031 period, building on the Future Systems and Network Regulation (FSNR) review rather than re-running it from first principles. The work should assess what has changed since FSNR and what those changes mean for the relative attractiveness, feasibility and risks of different future regulatory framework options. Ofgem is seeking external consultancy support to inform its Future Frameworks project, which is considering what the next generation of network price controls could look like beyond 2031. While RIIO has evolved significantly since its introduction in 2013, the energy sector is entering a period of unprecedented change driven by electrification, increasing network investment requirements, strategic system planning, changing patterns of energy demand, (read more...)

Summary: Ofgem is procuring external consultancy support for its Future Frameworks project on network price controls beyond 2031. The work will build on the Future Systems and Network Regulation review, assess changes in the energy sector and Ofgem’s regulatory capabilities, and examine the attractiveness, feasibility and risks of alternative frameworks for gas and electricity network companies. Outputs should provide independent strategic analysis and recommend options for further consideration against the RIIO model, including planning-based, adaptive and monitoring-focused approaches. The study will consider the enabling role of data, digital systems, Intelligent Oversight and artificial intelligence, and what could be tested during RIIO-3 and ED3. The intended outcomes are insight supporting affordable bills, resilient networks, service quality and Net Zero delivery. Work will be delivered across the United Kingdom.

Research Services for Pensions illustrations: presenting uncertainty and variability

Description: BACKGROUND The FRC is the UK's independent regulator responsible for issuing and maintaining technical actuarial standards. It is responsible for Actuarial Standard Technical Memorandum 1 (AS TM1), which specifies the assumptions and methods used to calculate statutory illustrations of money purchase, or defined contribution, pensions. Pension illustrations are based on assumptions about future investment returns, inflation and retirement choices. The uncertainty and variability inherent in future retirement outcomes can be challenging for defined contribution (DC) savers to understand. The FRC is interested in how this uncertainty and variability can be communicated clearly and effectively to support savers in understanding and assessing the adequacy of their pension arrangements. PURPOSE This research will gather evidence on how information can be presented to help DC savers understand the uncertainty and variability (read more...)

Summary: The Financial Reporting Council Limited is planning to commission research and consultancy on how pension illustrations can communicate uncertainty and variability to defined contribution savers. The work will support the development of pension illustrations and related communications, helping savers understand and assess the adequacy of their pension arrangements. It will focus on projected pension income for early- and mid-career savers, and on the amount and pattern of income for people approaching retirement. The planned research has three phases: a review of academic and professional literature; development of alternative wording, narratives, presentation formats, visualisations and prototype communications; and empirical testing with segmented groups of defined contribution savers. The service is classified as research and development and related consultancy services (CPV 73000000), delivered in the United Kingdom.
