Some exciting data and software updates alongside a few bug fixes in Local Energy Net Zero Accelerator (LENZA)!
Data:
The network headroom datasets in both Map and Projects have been updated with the latest headroom figures plus additional data on the volume of connections already in the ‘connections queue’.
We’re pleased to add two new datasets ‘Walking Distance to EV Chargers’ available in the Transport and Mobility category on the map. These datasets, from Field Dynamics, provide an indication of the areas currently served by an EV Charger within walking distance.
Projects: We’re delighted to bring you a wider range of asset sizes you can now deploy in projects. EV Chargers can now be placed up to 350kW and Rooftop PV arrays up to 500kW are now supported with full cost and carbon assessments.
Dataset Upload Enhancements: We’ve brought several new enhancements to the upload flow for user data. Including tips and recommendations to help identify why an upload has failed. We can also now accept EPSG: 27700 as well as EPSG: 4326.
Data Stories:
Data Story creators no longer need to save each section individually and can instead just click ‘Save and Publish’ to save all sections at once
You can now share Data Stories with users who have a pending invite to the platform, meaning when they login they’ll be able to access any shared Data Stories right away on their Home page.
Small enhancements and bug fixes, including:
Users can now add labels to point datasets on the map by going to Map>Layers
Users can send custom messages when inviting new users to the platform
Some small metadata updates
As always, you can find ‘how-to’ guides and video guides in the LENZA Knowledgebase, as well as Live Chat support.
