CP1504: amend BSCP201’s references to dual/single pricing
Formal title: Amend BSCP201’s references to dual/single pricing following implementation of P305
Current Status
Summary
Following the Implementation of P305, references to dual and single imbalance pricing in BSCP201 need to be updated in order to restore the clarity of the text. BSCP201 describes the steps to be taken if there is a Black start or Fuel security event. In such circumstances the Secretary of State can direct the Panel to determine and apply a special single imbalance price. P305, Implemented November 2015, replaced the dual imbalance pricing (The normal imbalance price at the time of writing BSCP201) with a single imbalance price. BSCP201’s references to replacing dual pricing with a single imbalance price (following a Black Start event) could cause confusion with the new single imbalance price introduced by P305 and should be amended.
