Regulatory disclosures
Disclosure in accordance with the Electricity Governance
(Security of Supply) Regulations 2008
Under the above regulations all electricity distributors are required to prepare a Participant Outage Plan. This document, which must be consistent with the Electricity Commission's Security of Supply Outage Plan, is required as a plan for managing severe energy shortages - although these are highly unlikely - and must include details of how rolling outages would be planned and implemented.
Rolling power outages are a last resort measure for managing severe energy shortages. Under normal conditions they should not be necessary, but it is prudent to plan for contingencies where they may be required.
Orion's Participant Outage Plan has been approved by the Electricity Commission and is available to view here:
