Scheme Management

We design, develop and manage assurance schemes for some of the most significant industry initiatives including smart metering and retail market entry.

Our Scheme Management services

Gemserv develops and implements governance frameworks, processes and procedures across sectors.

Our professional insight and experience into what works well along with the methods to achieve consensus – typically across many different stakeholders – help our clients establish, develop and improve governance.

We advise on issues including the establishment of central market arrangements, the operation of codes across different jurisdictions, and market entry requirements.

Making competition work effectively

  • We believe that good governance is not just about laying down and enforcing rules to ensure a market works; it’s also about stimulating innovation and enabling change to benefit all.

    Furthermore, integrity is vital to ensure that key regulatory decisions are made in a proper way, and also that stakeholders buy into them.

    It is vital to find the right balance between protecting consumers and opening markets to new entrants. This is especially true in areas such as energy where technology is transforming this sector via smart systems.

  • That’s where Gemserv’s expertise comes into play – we collaborate with all stakeholders to ensure regulated markets deliver the desired outcomes for policymakers, regulators and consumers.

    Our governance services allow fair, dynamic and innovative market arrangements to be established. This gives participants a voice in developing the policies and regulations that govern their activities and, most importantly, it allows all participants to compete on a level playing field.

Retail Energy Code

In the UK, the Retail Energy Code (REC) ensures that consumer benefit is placed at the heart of how the industry is governed, supporting accessibility within switching arrangements, safety of the network and the metering system, and protection of the most vulnerable in society.

Its principal purpose is to define the arrangements that underpin the retail energy market, across both gas and electricity.

Gemserv are the Code Manager supporting the Retail Energy Code Company in meeting the objectives of the REC.
