​​​Milestones​

Prospective CMUs must achieve Financial Commitment Milestone to demonstrate commitment to Capital Expenditure or funding and, Substantial Completion Milestone (SCM) to demonstrate the generating capacity.  If a CMU cannot demonstrate that it has achieved SCM it must provide details of Minimum Completion Requirements (guidance on this can be found in the SCM guidance document).

Substantial Completion Milestone (SCM)​

To achieve SCM, Prospective CMUs must demonstrate that they have been commissioned (or recommissioned) and are operational at/above 90% of their Capacity Obligation. Prospective CMUs should also have completed a Metering Assessment (and submitted a Metering Test if applicable) and have provide detailed line diagrams.

If a CMU holds an Agreement for more than 1 Delivery year, an additional ITE Report is also required to confirm Total Project Spend. Where an agreement is for more than 3 Delivery years, an ITE Certificate is also required confirming that the CMU has met the Extended Years Criteria.
