Future-proofing the network
This process is all about future-proofing aging 20th century infrastructure to provide a more reliable and efficient power network. It’s based on remote diagnostics and self healing, fine tuning capacity in real time, and better network planning.
It will help us all make better use of the electricity network, improving resource utilisation, network management and de
mand management.
We recognise the need to continually balance service levels with costs – that’s why the transformation of the network will take time. Improving customer service and value for money is a vital element of our network transformation.
Our Intelligent Network strategy outlines a 15-year plan, starting with simple procedures like replacing old devices with smarter alternatives as part of our ongoing maintenance program. We’re investigating intelligent solutions to improve the way we deliver all essential services.
