Given that it appears National Grid has [at least] 24 hours advance warning, I would hope not.I’m seeing reports, albeit only on Twitter, that National Grid are projecting electricity generation and import shortfalls tomorrow between 5 and 7pm.
If grid frequency falls below tolerable levels, could we end up with another night like 9th August 2019 with electric traction shutting down and refusing to work?
I would also hope that the Desiro fleet engineers have sufficient contingency in place this time round.
