How to enhance RIIO2 asset investment strategies

Energy networks face significant investment management challenges over the next few years, with growing concern over how this will impact capital delivery planning and broader net-zero objectives. Our latest Utility Week Explains looks at how networks can make better use of asset data to overcome these challenges.

As distribution network operators (DNOs) step into RIIO-ED2, the challenges ahead are varied and complex. Delivering the network of the future, which has resilience and sustainability at its core, is an overarching concern for the sector.

There are significant investment management challenges facing DNOs, with growing concern over how this will impact utilities’ capital delivery planning and broader net zero objectives. At the heart of this is a need for accurate and detailed asset data to support faster and more efficient delivery. So, how can networks ensure a robust approach to asset data that drives evidence-based decision-making across the next five years and beyond?

This new Utility Week report, published in association with Chime, sets out to answer this question by exploring:

  • What are the current limitations of current systems and processes for capturing asset data?
  • How will democratising access to asset data and field records support improved delivery?
  • How could data be better connected and utilised to support asset management objectives?
  • How can networks help engineers increase their productivity and deliver value-added asset management?
