Entry Assessment may begin once the Applicant has acceded to the MRA and BSC. After this MRASCo and Elexon will hold a Joint Planning meeting with the new entrant to discuss project timescales and provide further detail about the Market Entry processes.
Below we have provided references to relevant documents to use during the various stages of MRA Entry Assessment.
Exact timings will vary depending on a number of factors and the indicative timings below should only be used as a rough guide for the completion of Entry Assessment stages:
| Process Stage | Indicative timescale to progress |
