Nope just testing, goes live 26th, but it is trading power, actually it is kind of late right now, it had stopped testing for christmas but was supposed to resume testing 3 days ago, I imagine it was pushed back because of the weather. I think it is supposed to ramp up to 500mw today iirc.

Testing 10/100MW today, +/-500MW over the next couple of days, and then commercially taking part in auctions on the 26th.
Wonder is it functional tests before it goes fully online? It was exporting 18MW at 14:45 while all the other interconnects were importing energy.
The Eirgrid page also said it is forcasting a record peak demand today at 7.27GW at 5:30PM so maybe they are bringing it online in anticipation of this demand
