NIA SSEN 0080 Voltmetric

This project explores combining and analysing data from Smart Meters and LV monitors with information from the HV and EHV networks and DFES to produce an index of voltage and power quality health more

NIA SSEN 0082 Lancet

This project aims to certify and scale the Lancet tool to safely sample oil from energised pole‑mounted transformers without outages, reducing disruption, cost, and environmental risk while enabling efficient PCB testing and targeted replacements across the SSEN network. more

NIA SSEN 0071 Regional Energy System Optimisation Planning (RESOP)

Regional Energy System Optimisation Planning (RESOP) is a follow on from WSGSM 2 (NIA_SSEN_0043) which itself was a follow on from WSGSM (NIA_SSEN_0030). These projects have developed methodology for local area energy planning on a whole system basis. more

NIA SSEN 0081 Pathfinder

Electricity demand is expected to rise by 50% by 2035, and this project will accelerate the development of modern substation design, protection and control standards by safely de‑risking LPIT and IEC 61850 technologies through laboratory trials, enabling lower‑cost, standardised, and more efficient 132 kV network construction for consumers. more
