When do energy invoices need to be paid?
These invoices, which are normally issued to customers through the Information Exchange (IX) are due for payment on the 12th calendar day following receipt.
Payment will be made in full and shall not be subject to any deduction, set off or withholding.
What happens if the payment is late?
If the customer fails to make payment by the payment due date, a failure to pay notice is issued the next business day. A copy of this notice is also sent to Ofgem.
If payment is still not received by the end of the following business day, the matter is referred to the Energy Balancing Credit Committee (EBCC) who convene and decide on further action to take.
Section S.3 of the Uniform Network Code Transportation Principal Document (TPD) outlines payment terms for Energy related invoices.
You can view all of the TPD documents on the Joint Office website using the link below.
