IT Notices: Planned National Grid ESO Maintenance Outage

Name: IT Notices: Planned National Grid ESO Maintenance Outage
Start: 2020-06-20T00:00:00+00:00
End: 2020-06-20T04:00:00+00:00

We have been notified by National Grid ESO that there will be a planned maintenance outage impacting European Transparency Regulation (ETR) & REMIT data submissions via the Market Operation Data Interface System (MODIS) between 01:00 and 05:00 (BST) on Saturday 20 March 2020.

How will I be impacted?

During the outage, Market Participants will be unable to submit ETR and REMIT data to the
Market Operation Data Interface System (MODIS) via FTP.

Furthermore, ETR, REMIT, Demand Forecast and Non-BM STOR data will not be published on the Balancing Mechanism Reporting Service (BMRS) during this period of downtime. These files will be updated once the downtime has passed.

Participants that submit REMIT data via the Elexon Portal will not be impacted and National Grid’s Balancing Mechanism (BM) systems will also be unaffected by this planned downtime.

Do I need to take any further action?

No, however any BSC Parties having questions for National Grid regarding this planned outage should phone 0800 917 7111 or 0800 085 4806. Overseas callers should use +44 870 521 6121 and quote “NETA EDT”.
