Release of Capacity under Contract to NIE for resale to Suppliers in Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland Electricity (NIE), with the agreement of the Director General for Electricity Supply for Northern Ireland (DGES NI), announces its intent to make available the output equivalent of 125 MW of capacity for sale to licenced suppliers in the Northern Ireland eligible customer market.
The capacity will be allocated in the “Moyle Equivalent Energy Auction”. The auction will allocate energy equivalent to the output from a 125 MW contract between NIE and Scottish Power . NIE has sufficient capacity already under contract that it does not require this capacity to supply the wholesale energy needs of the Northern Ireland Franchise Customer Sector, and therefore NIE will make an energy equivalent amount of electricity available for resale. Appropriate documentation will be issued on behalf of NIE by the DGES (NI) and will be available from Friday 15th November.
Interested parties may obtain details of the auction and the accompanying documents by clicking Bid Documents and Capacity Agreements or by contacting:
