Over £75 million from the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund (SHDF) has been allocated to offer free energy efficiency upgrades that could save households up to £400 a year.
In this blog, we unpack the basics of PTAL data and how it influences decision-making in urban planning.
In this blog, we delve into the significance of mapping homes eligible for the government's Boiler Upgrade Scheme and the solutions available in the form of Heat Pump Potential Data to support heat pump installers in accelerating the transition.
In December 2023, LENZA specialists from SSEN and Advanced Infrastructure Technology Ltd (AITL), ran initial training sessions with representatives from Wiltshire Council, Southampton City Council, Dorset Council, Perth & Kinross Council, and Dundee City Council.
For insulation installers seeking a strategic edge in identifying suitable properties, this blog delves into the use of insulation data to pinpoint homes that can benefit most from an insulation upgrade.
This article will unpack some core considerations for the spatial and temporal optimisation of EV charge point deployment and how the use of cloud based geo-spatial planning tools such as LAEP+ (Local Area Energy Planner Plus) can identify, accelerate and significantly reduce the costs associated with EV charge point rollout.
In a recent report published by Regen and Innovate UK, "Planning for Energy Decarbonisation at a Local Level", it was highlighted that a core data and assumptions service for local authorities would improve the quality and efficiency of local decarbonisation planning.
In a landmark turn of events last week, the world convened at the 28th Climate Summit (COP28) with resounding determination to tackle the climate crisis head-on. Almost 200 nations, including the UK, US and the EU, pledged a resolute phase-out of fossil fuels, a pivotal step toward fulfilling the ambitions of the Paris Agreement.
In this blog, we unpack the basics of Low Carbon Technology Costs Data, how it can be used to estimate the total cost of deploying LCTs at building and regional levels and support funding applications, long term planning, carbon reduction targets as well as economic development.
SSEN and Advanced Infrastructure are rolling out a Net Zero planning tool across 58 local authorities in England and Scotland. Utilising Advanced Infrastructure’s LAEP+ platform and SSEN’s network capacity data, the application - LENZA (Local Energy Net Zero Accelerator) - is driving forward data access, modelling and collaboration in Local Net Zero planning.
In this blog, we unpack the basics of Insulation Potential Data, how it can be used to pin-point properties suitable for insulation, and the opportunities the data can bring to both the public and private sectors in accelerating deployment, reducing costs and tackling rising energy bills for residents.
National Grid Electricity Distribution has been awarded £558,491 for a project in partnership with West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) and Advanced Infrastructure to improve regional energy planning for net zero by bringing together key stakeholders and relevant datasets on a single digital platform.
Project RESOP (Regional Energy System Optimisation Planning) aims to take a ‘whole system’ approach, by drawing together data from multiple sources into a single tool that can be used to plan retrofit and roll out of low carbon technologies (LCTs) like electric vehicle charge points.
In November 2021, following a public tender process, Advanced Infrastructure was appointed to provide an energy mapping tool for project LEO utilising Advanced Infrastructure’s LAEP+ software service. This provided an excellent opportunity to test and validate the value of geospatial solutions for local area energy planning.
In June 2021, Advanced Infrastructure and EB Charging were awarded funding from the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles to specify and build a cloud-based siting tool for EV charge points. The output was EV Site, an EV focussed instance of our planning tool LAEP+. Advanced Infrastructure’s Head of Product, Lily Cairns Haylor, discusses the challenges of siting EV charge points at scale and the ways digital approaches might accelerate the tricky process.
In collaboration with the Centre for Net Zero, Octopus Energy's not-for-profit spin out, we examined the impact of heat pump uptake between 2021 and 2031. For London Climate Action Week 2021 we visualised and compared a winter's peak in 2021, where Londoners are primarily kept warm by gas, to a winter's peak in 2031 where the rollout of 40,000 heat pumps shift heating demand from the gas network to the electricity network.
