These Regulations make provision for the purpose of enabling consumers' demands for electricity in Great Britain to be met. They do so through capacity agreements, instruments which confer rights and impose obligations on those awarded an agreement. These rights and obligations consist principally of the right to receive capacity payments from the Settlement Body for generating (or reducing demand for) electricity at times of system stress, and the liability to make a penalty payment where the capacity agreement is breached. The Regulations also impose obligations on persons who supply electricity in Great Britain pursuant to an electricity supply licence (granted by the Gas and Electricity Markets Authority (“the Authority”) under section 6 of the Electricity Act 1989 ). Those obligations consist principally of requirements to make payments to the settlement body.
