Large-Load Connection Planning

Data centre connection requests, many of them driven by AI, have outgrown what parts of the grid can supply.

How we approach it

Model each request's real load profile and flexibility, from on-site generation and storage to the ability to curtail at peak. Assess network capacity under scenarios, and rank connection offers by their impact on the system, not only by queue position. The same models inform planning for new capacity.

Business value

More capacity connected without risking security of supply
