Ofgem proposes redaction rules for carbon-storage re-opener filings
Ofgem is seeking views on a standard approach to redactions in published documents for carbon dioxide transport and storage re-opener applications.
Event / data period: 2026-10-09
Published: · Updated:
The open consultation published on 9 October proposes an annex setting out how licensees should redact published documents. It is intended to make redactions consistent and properly justified across applications and publications.
The proposed framework aims to preserve enough transparency for readers to understand the basis for decisions while protecting sensitive or confidential material and meeting legal obligations. It is not yet a final policy; responses are due by 6 November 2026.
