AN INDEPENDENT <strong>EVALUATION</strong> OF THE LCNF Has the potential to deliver net financial benefits to future and/or existing customers Has a Direct Impact on the operation of a DNO’s Distribution System - 4 Assessment: Evidence that the project is highly likely to deliver financial benefits to the customers in London Evidence: Section 5.1 of the closedown report outlines the benefits from the project and the potential benefits to businesses. These include the avoidance of network reinforcement, customer interruptions and asset replacement, as well as facilitating more efficient connection of low carbon generation. The benefits are stated on the website as: Clearer demand profiles to help plan network reinforcement schemes; Improved management of secondary substation ventilation; Better, more cost-effective application of maintenance policies; Support the connection of new load and renewable generation. The project therefore has a number of benefits for customers. These are likely to be a mix of short and longer term benefits. References: • Distribution Network Visibility: LCN Fund Tier 1Close down Report; Dec-13. • http://innovation.ukpowernetworks.co.uk/innovation/en/Projects/tier-1-projects/distributionnetwork-visibility/ Assessment: The project has been /is ready to roll out into BAU. The project has a high likelihood of being replicated by other DNOs. Evidence: DNV software application was successfully developed and the application has been embedded into BAU within UKPN. The final report states “A production web-based application was successfully developed to implement a suite of visualisations and analysis tools for network data. This application has now been adopted business as usual by UK Power Networks as part of our corporate IT landscape and is being used by various business units.” The project is not specifically used for any follow on projects however is a valuable source of system data for other UKPN projects such as Flexible Urban Networks (FUN) LV. The techniques used in the tool are applicable to other DNOS where system data is available. References: • Distribution Network Visibility: LCN Fund Tier 1Close down Report; Dec-13.

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 5 5 Assessment: Specific replication report(s) exist. These cover the main technical / commercial / stakeholder aspects as applicable. A learning dissemination event or webinar was held. Evidence: Appendix E provides an overview of the reports issues on the project. These are not readily available on the website, but are available to other DNOs on request. There are ten reports on the DNV application, eight on network monitoring, four on real time power flow and five on RTU advanced features. A presentation on the project is available from the project website (dated November 2013) and presentations were given at the two of the LCNF annual conferences.

Therefore, commercial solution has been developed and can be considered to be moved to TRL9. References: • Distribution Network Visibility: LCN Fund Tier 1Close down Report; Dec-13.
