The independent analysis in relation to the electricity transmission assets being carried out by Frontier Economics Limited is close to finalisation. The unbundling of the transmission assets involves the resolution of complex technical, financial and operational issues as well as the possible development of legislation. The independent analysis includes an assessment of costs, benefits and regulatory impact, set in the context of EU developments and the all island single electricity market. The process has involved input from the direct key stakeholders and other stakeholders. The cost of the analysis is €178,500.
