⚡️ Operational flexibility in action ⚡️ We're pleased to have demonstrated another successful flexibility partnership following work with Statkraft and their Rheidol hydropower scheme. Using the hydro station to provide flexibility services enabled us to provide a continuous electricity service to 25,000 customers in the Ceredigion region of Mid Wales whilst work on the electricity grid between Aberystwyth and Barnmouth was carried out. Flexibility is a key component of our DSO strategy and Rheidol hydropower scheme is just one operational flexibility providers working with us to provide standby generation availability and post fault generation turn up.

💡Got a brilliant idea to support the call for innovation: Working on Low Voltage Underground Cables? https://lnkd.in/eD486dUP We've extended the deadline to 7 November so you've still got time to make your submission. Cable jointers play a vital role in maintaining a secure supply of electricity whilst working in a variety of environments. This call for innovation will explore every aspect of jointing procedures and investigate all possible technologies that could enhance the health and safety of operators. Sign up to the EIC Hub now and submit your idea!

Spine-chilling news!🎃 Scarily this is your final reminder that we're just a day away from the dead-line for this call for innovation. Thinking about submitting... you've still got a ghost of a chance to get it in before the deadline at 23.59 tomorrow!

Our friends at Spring, the water sector centre of excellence, have launched their fourth innovation accelerator challenge and are calling for innovators from all backgrounds to apply. https://lnkd.in/eBR8r9BD The Spring Accelerator is an end-to-end innovation challenge process that has been created to identify innovative solutions that help address a significant need in the UK & Ireland water sector, reduce the duplication of innovation efforts, and provide a path to faster adoption. The current programme, Spring Accelerator 4, is looking to answer the question: “How can we better understand, monitor and manage emerging contaminants in wastewater?”   If you’re an innovator, don’t miss this opportunity to have your solutions seen, evaluated, and potentially adopted by the UK and Ireland water sector

Members of the Energy Innovation Centre team are at the #energysummit at the Exhibition Centre Liverpool today and tomorrow to talk the latest in innovation as we work towards the challenge of decarbonisation! Come and say hello and find out how we can support you. #energy #innovation #decarbonisation #netzero #visnet

Bem-vindo ao Energy Innovation Centre! On Monday we welcomed visitors from a Brazilian trade delegation to our home in Ellesmere Port. Our guests are taking part in a Department of Trade & Industry learning tour of utility and innovation companies in the UK. We presented the UK energy framework and how the EIC fits into that landscape. Obrigado por ter vindo!

📢 Calling all innovators! 📢 We're working with the EIC to find innovators to collaborate on developing a ‘smart connector’. These connectors will be installed in newly made cable joints on our underground low voltage network to locate faults, provide network operation data and enhance operator safety, while reducing disruption for customers. If you think you can support, find out more through the EIC 👉 https://lnkd.in/dSB5ujnW #electricitynetwork #innovation #energyinnovation
