Vattenfall IDNO Unveils New Grid Capacity Insights Platform to Accelerate Electrification

Vattenfall IDNO has launched a Grid Capacity Insights Platform, designed to streamline the grid connection process for developers in the UK. The platform provides detailed data on power availability, grid constraints, and capacity by voltage for any location, helping developers avoid delays and failed grid applications.

With the ability to pinpoint optimal Points of Connection, suggest practical cable routes, and deliver comprehensive reports, Vattenfall’s Grid Connections Consultancy offers a smoother path to successful grid applications. Developers can even receive this service at no cost if Vattenfall adopts the network.

As the UK transitions to net-zero, Vattenfall IDNO is committed to supporting the electrification of sectors by simplifying grid access. The platform ensures that developers, for both demand and generation projects, can efficiently select sites, manage grid applications, and proceed confidently with their projects.

Vattenfall’s end-to-end consultancy service covers the entire application process, from feasibility to execution, including tendering for contestable works and overseeing network delivery. This holistic approach ensures developers can accelerate electrification projects and minimize the complexities of grid connectivity, while optimising costs.

To further reduce barriers, Vattenfall IDNO offers to waive consultancy fees when adopting a network, making it a highly attractive option for developers keen to transition to electric infrastructure. This aligns with Vattenfall’s broader commitment to facilitating the UK's journey towards decarbonisation and sustainable energy.
