Operator capacity source

Whole-site registered total: 126 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.

The source catalogue has no site coordinate, so the explorer shows a regional position rather than an exact location.

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.
