Great Britain's electricity grid operator has asked the market to provide additional back-up power generation, according to the London Evening Standard. The move signals concern about having enough reserve capacity to keep supplies stable when demand spikes or plants go offline. It highlights continuing pressure on energy infrastructure amid tight supply margins.
Why now: Energy security and grid reliability are under scrutiny given tight power supply margins and recent market volatility.
