Why Outage Schedules Matter
Scheduled outages reduce network capability while the work is under way. Interregional entries can lower transfer limits between regions, which links them directly to price separation and to the constraints that bind generators. Reading the schedule by date shows which days carry that exposure.
Figures use the outage schedule snapshot published on 3 November 2025, with withdrawn entries excluded and times in fixed UTC+10.
