Optimising Network reliability and Reducing Customer Interruptions: A Case Study of a UK Distribution Network. Written by:  Dr Waqas Javed, Team Lead, and Dr David Mills, Head of Net Zero transition, at EA Technology

As we move towards a more sustainable energy future, the need for a reliable network is essential; especially as demand and our reliance on electricity increases.

Proactive infrastructure investment, predictive maintenance plans, and technology advancements to detect, anticipate, and minimise potential issues are necessary to maintain reliability.

The study explores how changing asset health, future loading and climate change impacts may affect reliability and prioritize solutions, automation schemes and demand flexibility to offer the greatest supply reliability.
