Introduction Volume of Domestic Low Carbon Technologies (LCT) for both generation and demand (under 1MW) connected.Update 22/10/2026: The Low Carbon Technology (LCT) dataset has recently undergone a comprehensive data quality review and enhancement programme, including the adoption of new and improved data sources, resulting in improved accuracy, completeness, and overall reliability. These improvements have resulted in changes to some of the aggregated data published on the Open Data Portal. Key improvements include: The inclusion of historical requests received outside of the Smart Connect Portal following its launch in March 2021 (for example, requests and notifications submitted via email). The removal of duplicate entries resulting from multiple enquiries for the same installation. Improved tracking of capacity changes between the initial request stage and final installation. More regular reconciliation against MCS certificate data to identify and address gaps in the data Enhanced connectivity and network location data. Methodological ApproachLCT application data (which captures, amongst other things, the location, LCT type, and capacity) is taken from our Smart Connect portal at https://www.ukpowernetworks.co.uk/smart-connect and enquiries received via email; Using the Postcode of the MPAN (Meter Point Administration Number), we map the data to LSOA using Office for National Statistics datasets which are updated annuallyContains lower layer super output area (LSOA) codes and name data sourced from the Office for National Statistics licensed under the Open Government Licence v.3.0 Quality Control Statement Quality Control Measures include a manual review and correction of data inconsistencies. Assurance Statement The Open Data Team has checked to ensure data accuracy and consistency.
