Postalised Tariff
The postalisation tariff consists of a capacity and commodity charge that applies for use of the Northern Ireland transmission network system.
The Tariff
The tariff calculation is based on the allowable revenue, as agreed with the Ofreg, and forecast demands. The tariff is set to give each pipeline owner their appropriate rate of return while also recovering their operating costs. Forecast capacities/demands set at the outset of the gas year are based on expected reserved capacity and expected commodity use of gas. There is a 75:25 capacity/commodity split to recover the allowable revenue on the system. The postalised tariff archive is available here.
