Overview

IntroductionThe data shown above constitutes UK Power Networks’ provisional view against the Clean Power 2030 technology breakdowns applicable to UK Power Networks – the information will continue to be updated as we confirm the evidence from our customers. This is for indicative purposes only.Here is a breakdown of the different categories:Connected: Connected capacity.Potentially Protected Schemes by 2030: Projects meeting any of the protections criteria against Strategic Alignment. In line with the Connections Network Design Methodology (CNDM) from NESO, if the 2030 permitted capacity is reached at this stage, all remaining potentially protected projects will be allocated to Phase 2 (2035 allocation), even if this results in 2035 permitted capacity being exceeded. Potentially Protected Schemes by 2035: Remaining projects meeting any of the protections criteria against Strategic Alignment, and which exceeded the 2030 permitted capacity.Projects with readiness connecting by 2030:  Projects with land rights (and either application submitted, under appeal or only land), connecting by 2030 as per their contracted connection date.Projects with readiness connecting by 2035: Projects with land rights (and either application submitted, under appeal or only land), connecting by 2035 as per their contracted connection date.No readiness or progress recorded: Projects without land rights (despite having consents approved or application submitted), or no progress recorded at all.Outside of scope for Gate 2 to Whole Queue: Projects which fall outside of the upcoming Gate 2 application window (Gate 2 to Whole Queue) due to not being part of an application to NESO before “The Pause” .Clean Power Action Plan - 2030: Regional capacity breakdown per technologies for UK Power Networks’ distribution network region for 2030, as provided by the Clean Power 2030 Action Plan (Clean Power 2030 Action Plan: A new era of clean electricity: Connections reform annex)Clean Power Action Plan - 2035: Regional capacity breakdown per technologies for UK Power Networks’ distribution network region for 2035, as provided by the Clean Power 2030 Action Plan (Clean Power 2030 Action Plan: A new era of clean electricity: Connections reform annex) Methodological Approach The breakdown has been generated based on the progress status which aligns with NESO’s Gate 2 Readiness Criteria, compared against DESNZ allocation for UK Power Networks. This continues to be updated as more information is provided and validated. Quality Control Statement This dataset has been peer reviewed and is the outcome of an iterative process as the queue formation process has become clearer over the last months (and is still subject to change following Ofgem’s decision). Assurance Statement The Open Data Team and DSO Regional Development Team worked together ensure data accuracy and consistency.
