Here's what it could mean for you.
NATIONAL Grid is set to trigger an emergency blackout plan tomorrow and could pay Brits to turn off their energy to avoid power cuts.
The winter emergency electricity plan could be activated for the first time with supplies tight due in part to problems in the French energy grid.The scheme, which launched at the start of this month, has already been tested twice in the last two weeks but has not yet been run for a live event. And it means the multinational electricity company may pay households to cut their energy usage in a bid to avoid power cuts tomorrow evening.
National Grid said it would decide by around 2.30pm today whether to issue the notice to suppliers and households. It comes as low temperatures and outages on France's nuclear power fleet are set to put pressure on power supplies, according to market experts Enappsys.
