A Scalable Geospatial Data-Driven Localization Approach for Modeling of Low Voltage Distribution Networks and Low Carbon Technology Impact Assessment
January 2023 • Connor McGarry, Amy Anderson, Ian Elders, Stuart Galloway
The electrification of heat and transport through the uptake of low carbon technologies (LCTs) is expected to pose significant planning and management challenges for distribution network operators (DNOs) in the coming decades. Therefore, to support investment decision making there is a requirement to understand the impact LCTs will have on low voltage (LV) distribution network infrastructure across diverse geographical areas. However, LV networks are not only radically different in terms of topology and physical a…
