EMRS would like to inform Capacity Providers we have successfully implemented four changes. These changes support the Stress Event Improvement Programme 2020:

  • Online submission of Capacity Market Volume Reallocation Notifications (CMVRN) via the EMRS Portal
  • Confirmation of receipt for submission of Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) metered data
  • Emails to notify rejection of duplicate CMVRN Trade IDs

These improvements support the operational effectiveness for both Capacity Providers, ESC and EMRS particularly if a Capacity Market Stress Event did occur. These changes were progressed from the feedback received from the last Mock Stress Event.

In addition, the below change also relates to Capacity Providers:

  • Duplicate Rows in Capacity Payment Late Payment Interest (LPI) Table

Further details on each of the changes is available in EMRC224 – Update on the EMRS changes for the Stress Event Improvement Programme 2020.
