(Reuters) – Britain’s National Grid cancelled standby notices for Drax Group’s two coal units on Monday, according to Elexon’s website.

Earlier in the day, the grid operator issued start-up notices for two 570 MW coal units at Drax’s power station in Yorkshire as a cold snap gripped the country.

Elexon is a wholly-owned but operationally independent subsidiary of National Grid Energy System Operator (NGESO).
