Position as at 13 October 2026

A regulatory calendar is only useful if every line on it can be defended.

The one we keep at Sol Associates applies three tests before a date goes in. Is there a published instrument I can cite, by article or by portal? Is the date adopted, rather than proposed? Does it apply to everyone, rather than to one file?

A draft still in consultation fails the second test. A date that belongs to one project fails the third. I read both, but they belong on a watch list that says what they are, not on a calendar a team schedules against.

I would rather add a date a week after publication than remove one after a team has planned around it.

Today the calendar holds the close of the KP1 storage call on 30 October 2026 at 14:00, the 25 May 2027 deadline for the establishment authorisation (AI) on connection contracts above 1 MW already in force on 25 May 2026, and the guarantee levels, each with its source. Last reviewed 1 October 2026.
