AN INDEPENDENT <strong>EVALUATION</strong> OF THE LCNF Generates knowledge that can be shared amongst all DNOs Focuses on network methods that are at the trialling stage 4 5 Assessment: ENWL can advise on the adoption of the smart fuse Evidence: What began as a simple concept for a low voltage auto-reclosing device to meet a perceived has now grown into a significant business activity across a number of DNOs. The Smart Fuse is generating measurable financial benefits to DNOs and improved service to our customers and not least has created long term employment opportunities within Kelvatek. The Smart Fuse is a fully developed device and has the full technical and commercial support structure in place that would be expected of any commercially available technology. Electricity North West can advise any DNO on adoption of the Smart Fuse and discussions have already taken place at the time of writing with a number of DNOs who are assessing the potential costs and benefits of the Smart Fuse. References: • Close-down report, May 2014 Assessment: Solution moved to TRL9 (actual system proven in operational environment), or commercial solution proven in operational environment Evidence: No discussion of TRL in the close-out report. The Bidoyng fuse was made in volume (200 off) for this project and no reports of design changes were seen. The fuse is marketed on the Kelvatek web site with a video showing the interest and use of the fuse by several DNOs. So TRL probably was TRL9 before and after the project.

AN INDEPENDENT <strong>EVALUATION</strong> OF THE LCNF Clyde Gateway Project Title Clyde Gateway Tier 1 DNO SPEN Status Complete LCNF project funding £300,000 Project objectives The project objective was to demonstrate the integration of a number of smart grid components within an established infrastructure and facilitate the development of solutions in a number of areas including power quality, HV/LV automation, autosectionalising / load-transfer etc. The application of the latest technologies on various smart grid components on a relatively small network aimed to: • Assist with the development of efficient and effective solutions. • Provide learning outcomes not only on the smart aspects of the grid infrastructure but on design standards, network voltages and utilisation of assets. • Inform industry and the supply chain on smart grid challenges and solutions. Assessment Criteria Accelerates the development of a low carbon energy sector Score (1-5) 4 Overview of assessment, sources of evidence and comments Assessment: The project clearly facilitates the connection of low carbon generation or demand. Evidence: Part of the project was about trialling simultaneous measurement of voltage at various points on the network in order to inform design and operational practice with respect to impact of generation. The aim would be to allow more generation to be accommodated. The other methods trialled bring additional carbon benefits.
