MPRS

The Metering Point Registration System (MPRS) is the required solution for managing changes of supplier in the deregulated Electricity market in Great Britain.

MPRS provides the software component for satisfying (OFGEM's) Distribution Business’ license conditions for the provision of a Metering Point Administration Service (MPAS).

MPRS is constructed in accordance with Part IV of the Master Registration Agreement (MRA) and is currently used by all fourteen Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) and five Independent Distributors (IDNOs).

Introduced in 1997, MPRS has continued to evolve and is regularly updated to reflect industry and user changes. Today MPRS represents a functionally rich application that is at the heart of competition in domestic electricity supply, it supports interaction between supply and distribution market participants by providing the following functions:

  • Skeleton MPAN record creation
  • Change of Supplier registration
  • Objection processing
  • Changes to Distribution owned data
  • Changes to Supplier owned data
  • Enquiries
  • Reporting

MPRS runs on an IBM System P Server with an Oracle database. It uses Oracle's Application Server to allow end users to access the application through a web browser.

The application is available on a commercial basis to new Distribution Network Operators entering the market.
