- 19 Sept 2026 · BREDB-1
The current operator page identifies the fully operational 50 MW / two-hour battery connected directly at National Grid's Bredbury substation. The committed REPD crosswalk identifies BREDB-1 as that 50 MW substation project, excluding other Bredbury proposals. MW is discharge power; the 49.9 MW registry reference remains separate.

Operator capacity sourceWhole-site registered total: 49.9 MW, including retired units.
Registered capacity is the value retained in the committed BM-unit source snapshot. “Not retained” means the registry no longer supplied a positive figure; it does not mean the unit historically had no capacity. If a unit with a retirement event publishes a non-zero live declaration, the live declaration keeps it in the operating fleet pending review.

Current output is the operator’s declared Physical Notification. Metered output is published later and is shown as the solid portion of the history chart; outage shading comes from REMIT notices.
