AN INDEPENDENT <strong>EVALUATION</strong> OF THE LCNF Has a Direct Impact on the operation of a DNO’s Distribution System Generates knowledge that can be shared amongst all DNOs Focuses on network methods that are at the trialling stage 4 2 5 Assessment: The project has been /is ready to roll out into BAU or outputs are utilised in later LNCF projects. The project has a high likelihood of being replicated by other DNOs. Evidence: Some of the elements of the project were transferred to another BAU project. The communications routes developed as part of this project were used to remotely talk to all the Weezap (LV circuit breaker) and Lynx (LV switch) devices being deployed as part of the Second Tier project, Smart Street. The protection algorithms were deployed in selected devices as part of Smart Street. References: • Low voltage protection and communications; Close down report; June 2015. Assessment: The only replication information available is in the closedown report. Evidence: The closedown report states that all of the protection algorithms and communications protocols developed as part of LV PAC will be commercially available on the Weezap and Lynx platforms. There do not appear to be any other replication materials and there is no evidence of a dissemination event. References: • Low voltage protection and communications; Close down report; June 2015. Assessment: Moved from TPL 6 to TRL 9 actual system proven in operational environment Evidence: TRL 6 in the tier 1 project pro-forma. TRL has not been discussed in the project closedown report. However, the key objective of the project was demonstrated enhanced protection functionality which can be applied to the Weezap devices. This was done and the solution is being used in ongoing projects. Therefore, the solution can be considered to be TRL9– system demonstrated in operational environment.

AN INDEPENDENT <strong>EVALUATION</strong> OF THE LCNF Distribution Network Visibility Project Title Distribution Network Visibility Tier 1 DNO UKPN Status Complete LCNF project funding £2,890,000 Project objectives The main aim of the project was to demonstrate the benefits of the smart collection, utilisation and visualisation of distribution network data. Areas addressed as part of the project: 1. Identifying the business units that would benefit from visualisation and analysis of the data, and defining the functionalities they would require to deliver these benefits. 2. Development of a visualisation application. 3. Trialling commercially available load flow to visualise dynamic load flows on distribution networks. 4. Maximise benefit from existing data sources. 5. Trial advanced monitoring sensors. 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: The benefits referenced in section 5.1 of the closedown report, and on the project website, show that the project will facilitate and support the connection of new load and renewable generation. The project therefore facilitates the connection of low carbon generation. Carbon benefits are not specifically quantified.
