outputs from the
project
The project aims to establish the optimum set and mix of technical, social and commercial interventions which can be applied to electricity distribution in order to facilitate the transition to a low carbon economy.
This knowledge will be built up through pursuing five ‘learning outcomes’ and drawing the results together.
Learning outcome 1
establishes a greater understanding of current, emerging and possible future load and generation characteristics.

Learning outcome 2
evaluates the extent to which customers are flexible in their load and generation, and the cost of this flexibility.

Learning outcome 3
focuses on network technology and evaluates the extent to which the network can be more flexible, and the cost of this flexibility.
The outputs of these first three learning outcomes are drawn together to deliver the following learning outcomes:
Learning outcome 4
seeks to answer the question ‘what is the optimum solution to resolve network constraints driven by the transition to a low carbon economy ?’
Learning outcome 5
seeks to answer the question ‘what are the most effective means to deliver optimal solutions between customer, supplier and
distribution network operator?’
