GC0160 - Grid Code Changes for BSC Mod P448: "Protecting Generators subject to Firm Load Shedding during a Gas Supply Emergency from excessive Imbalance Charges"
The BSC Modification proposes to address the risk of Generators in GB being prevented from generating this winter (due to Firm Load Shedding during a Gas Supply Emergency) by allowing such Firm Load Shedding instructions to be settled as Bids. As a result, and in order to ensure consistency between the BSC and the Grid Code, this Modification seeks to ensure that the actions of the affected party in terms of Physical Notifications are aligned.
