Im Falle eines nicht behebbaren Ausfalls von E10A wird der EUMETCast Europe Service derzeit auf EUTELSAT 21B (E21B) in der Orbitalposition 21 ° Ost fortgesetzt.

Wie bereits angekündigt, wird ab dem 01.02.2021 das EUMETCast Europe-Backup von E21B auf Hotbird 13 (HB13) in der 13 ° Ost-Orbitalposition migriert. Dies bedeutet, dass ab dem 01.02.2021 im Falle eines nicht behebbaren Ausfalls von E10A der EUMETCast Europe Service auf HB13 fortgesetzt wird.

Eine Testaktivierung des EUMETCast Europe-Dienstes für die vorgesehenen HB13-Transponder ist im ersten Quartal 2021 geplant. Während des Tests werden auf beiden Satelliten (E10A und HB13) dieselben Datenströme verfügbar sein.
