Projects
A small set of anonymised examples showing the type of work supported across demand, generation and storage projects. Kept generic on purpose, but specific enough to be useful.
Large demand
Supported early-stage grid strategy for a transmission-connected large demand project in the roughly 50MW to 200MW range, including review of likely transmission constraints, alternative connection routes, and the practical effect on programme under Connections Reform and Gate 2.
The outcome was a clearer view of what was realistic, what was weak, and how the client should frame site and investment decisions around the connection position.
Solar PV / BESS
Advised on connection strategy for a utility-scale solar project, including examples at sub-50MW scale and co-located solar and BESS schemes up to roughly 400MW. Work focused on export capacity positioning, transmission interface risk and the effect of queue position on programme and deliverability.
Helped shape a more practical connection route and avoid the project drifting into a slower or weaker position than needed.
Generation / storage
Reviewed connection offers on transmission-connected and distribution-connected generation and storage projects, pulling out the real issues: reinforcement timing, works agreement milestones, curtailment exposure, cost risk and the practical effect on programme.
This gave clients a firmer basis for acceptance decisions and better footing for follow-up engagement with the network company.
Portfolio screening
Assessed portfolios of potential sites ranging from around 5MW distribution-connected schemes through to 50MW+ opportunities, helping clients prioritise which projects were worth advancing based on likely network constraints, interface complexity and connection risk.
The result was a more focused pipeline and less time spent on weaker grid positions.
Network interface
Supported live demand, generation and storage projects by engaging directly with network companies to clarify assumptions, challenge weak positions where needed, and move connection discussions forward. This has included work across all GB DNOs, with National Grid, and in projects where transmission interface and queue context materially affected delivery strategy.
The value was better visibility on next steps, fewer false assumptions and less uncertainty in programme planning.
