A warning is issued in the face of the possibility that energy demands will not be met by generation.
Britons were concerned about potential blackouts, with one Twitter user tweeting: 'National grid has apparently announced that its struggling to cope with the amount of energy being used in the UK and we could have a blackout from 7pm tonight.
'Let's hope it's a bunch of b****** and doesn't happen.'

The National Grid ESO website says: 'A Capacity Market Notice is a signal four hours in advance that, when taking into account additional operational reserve requirements, there may be less generation available than National Grid Electricity System Operator (ESO) expects to need to meet national electricity demand on the transmission system.
'The notices are intended to be a signal that the risk of a System Stress Event in the GB electricity network is higher than under normal circumstances.
'Capacity Market Notices are communicated automatically by National Grid ESO systems to this website and will be issued at least four hours ahead of the stated commencement time.
'The primary trigger set by the UK Government for a Capacity Market Notice to be issued to the industry is where the level of available generation is within a 500MW threshold of National Grid ESO's requirement.'
