Overview

Most of the change on the network is landing at low voltage, and LV networks were never built to be monitored, so the picture of where headroom is running out is incomplete almost everywhere.

Abdus Salam and Raisa Hasanat look at how VisNet Forecast closes that gap: estimating load at individual substations and feeders years ahead, and testing whether reinforcement, flexibility or automation is the better answer in each case. In one study area it identified £48.4 million of reinforcement spend that could be avoided on a single feeder set.
