The Electricity (Class Exemptions from the Requirement for a Licence) (Amendment) Order 2007
This Order amends Schedule 3 to the Electricity (Class Exemptions from the Requirement for a Licence) Order 2001 (S.I. 2001/3270) to add a new class exemption from the requirement of section 4(1)(bb) of the Electricity Act 1989 (which prohibits the distribution of electricity without a licence). The new class exemption applies to those who are engaged in the activity of offshore distribution, that is those who distribute electricity generated by a generating station in offshore waters usually for the purposes of conveying it onshore.
