Generation Capacity Register

Connections

The Generation capacity register lists generators that:

  • Are connected to our network ("Connected")
  • Have accepted offers to connect to our network ("Accepted-not-yet-Connected")
  • Have received offers to connect to our network ("Offered-not-yet-Accepted")
  • Have enquired about connecting to our network and not yet received an offer ("Enquired-not-yet-Offered")
    Each generator is listed with its capacity, generation technology, and where it connects to our network. Generators that connect at HV (11kV) and below are aggregated by generation technology at Primary substation level.
