LAEP+ is an award-winning Net Zero planning tool that helps local authorities, energy network operators, and consultants to identify optimum locations to deploy low-carbon technologies or plan region-wide energy transitions.
How LAEP+ works
Many local authorities, DNOs, and consultants struggle to cost-effectively identify and triage suitable sites for energy projects.
Project opportunities are missed and those that are selected face lengthy delays trying to access network capacity information, model energy demand, estimate carbon avoidance, and assess the feasibility of potential sites. This project-level information is often missing from local area energy plans which are typically static PDF reports that do not provide the granularity of data needed to translate a plan into a pipeline of projects.
LAEP+ is currently being used to build energy plans, respond to grants, and identify and triage buildings suitable for heat pump grants, EVs, rooftop PV, and more.
You can use this award-winning digital twin tool to identify optimum locations to deploy low-carbon technologies or plan region-wide energy transitions.
LAEP+ features
- Visualisation: A cloud-based mapping and analysis tool to filter and analyse data in maps, charts, tables, and graphs.
- Modelling: In browser calculations to quickly baseline an area and simulate the impact of different scenarios
- Datasets: An on-demand repository of add-on datasets covering network capacity, EV charge point potential, PV potential, heat pump potential, heat demand, and more.
Benefits of LAEP+
- Overlay, analyse, and export: Create custom maps populated with hundreds of datasets and run browser-based analysis to identify and evidence the suitability of different sites for low-carbon energy interventions.
- Filter and shortlist: Search and filter across the map to triage potential sites and shortlist opportunities. Optimise site selection by network capacity, building type, heating need, income, fuel poverty, demographic, and more. Download shortlists of addresses that meet your criteria.
- In-browser analytics: Translate climate action plans into specific projects and volumes of assets, baseline current potential for low-carbon technologies, and view data as exportable charts, graphs, tables, and maps.
- Data overlays: Overlay dozens of LAEP+ datasets: PV potential, public transport accessibility, EV utilisation, EPC, UPRNs, and more. Upload your own data to view and store. Access electricity network capacity information.
