LONDON--U.K. gas and electricity market regulator, Ofgem, said Thursday it plans to launch a mid-term review into 2013-2021 price controls for National Grid PLC (NG.LN) electricity and gas transmission.

The regulator said it will consult on proposals for any changes to outputs and associated revenue this summer. A decision will be made late autumn, and any changes would take effect from April 1, 2017, it said.

Ofgem set the price controls for energy transmission and gas distribution in 2013. As part of this, provision was made for a mid-period review of the outputs companies have to deliver for customers if there were material changes in government policy, or changes in the needs of consumers and network users.
