utilised in later LNCF projects.<br />
Other DNOs have included the<br />
project in their business plans.<br />
The project has been /is ready to<br />

utilised in later LNCF projects.<br />
The project has a high likelihood of<br />
being replicated by other DNOs.<br />
The project is ready to roll out when<br />
the energy landscape requires the<br />
solution<br />
The project has a reasonable<br />
likelihood of being replicated by<br />

Solution moved to TRL9 (actual<br />
system proven in operational<br />
environment), or commercial<br />
solution proven in operational<br />
environment<br />
Solution moved to TRL8 (complete<br />
and qualified by end of trial), or<br />
commercial solution developed<br />
suitable for roll out<br />
Solution moved to TRL7 (system<br />
prototype demonstrated in<br />
operational environment), or<br />
commercial solution demonstrated<br />
in operational environment<br />
Score 2 descriptor<br />
The project just demonstrates<br />
carbon benefit with respect to<br />
increasing energy efficiency.<br />
Evidence that the project may<br />
The project has been / is ready to<br />
deliver short-term financial benefits<br />
roll out into BAU.<br />
to a limited group of customers (e.g.<br />
The project has potential for<br />
associated with asset replacement<br />
replication in niche situations.<br />
deferment)<br />
The only replication information<br />
available is in the closedown report.<br />
Solution moved to TRL6 (technology<br />
demonstrated in relevant<br />
environment), or commercial<br />
solution demonstrated in restricted<br />
environment<br />
Score 1 descriptor<br />
The project does not clearly<br />
demonstrate any carbon benefits.<br />
Little or no evidence that the project<br />
will deliver any financial benefit to<br />
customers.<br />
The project is ready to roll out when<br />
the energy landscape requires the<br />
solution.<br />
The project has potential for<br />
replication in niche situations<br />
OR<br />
This is a one off project with no<br />
potential for future replication.<br />
No dissemination or replication<br />
documentation is evident.<br />
Solution has not progressed wrt<br />
technology level, or has not<br />
progressed wrt a commercial<br />
arrangement<br />
