P480 Publication of regional demand forecast data to fulfil ESRS Reporting requirements

P480 seeks to facilitate the Electricity System Restoration Standard (ESRS) requirements to publish the day-ahead peak demand forecast for each restoration region and the demand restored in each restoration region published hourly during a System Restoration on BMRS (Elexon’s Insights Solution Platform). P480 is a consequential Modification to GC0156 ‘Facilitating the Implementation of the Electricity System Restoration Standard’.

This Proposed Solution is to make changes to BSC system and BSC Section Q ‘Balancing Mechanism Activities’ and CSDs to implement these provisions outlined in GC0156.
