A new UK Government report has detailed the exact times Scottish homes could experience power cuts this winter.
News of planned power outages were reported last month when the National Grid warned that homes across the UK may have to endure three-hour blackouts on "really, really cold" days. The potential measures aim to preserve energy in a "worst case scenario" of a gas supply shortage.
Such blackouts will most likely happen between 4-7pm through January and February on the "deepest darkest evenings", National Grid chief John Pettigrew previously explained. Should they take place, the timing of these outages will be staggered, with different parts of Scotland being hit at varied times.
