In some areas of Great Britain, high penetration of distribution connected generation is causing network constraints that are blocking the connection of more renewable power. Traditional network reinforcement typically has long lead times and these delays are slowing the decarbonisation of the country’s energy system.
Project UN:LOCK is exploring novel commercial arrangements to maximise existing network capacity in constrained areas to support the roll out of new generation assets whilst the long-term network reinforcements are being delivered. This will create additional local economic benefit for both generators and consumers as well as accelerate progress to a Net Zero society.
