1.13.23

Updated over a week ago

There are a few exciting updates in LENZA this month! From new data to feature enhancements, check out the details below:

New DFES

You can now view SSEN’s new DFES data in LENZA!

Simply go to the Map and click on the ‘DFES’ tab. From there you can view data by different scenarios and technologies, and select the scenario that best represents your local area.

Updated datasets

  • The Primary, BSP, and GSP Substation Supply Areas datasets have been updated to better align with SSEN’s Network Scenario Headroom Report. This update will also reduce the occurrence of grey polygons on the map.

  • We’ve added the most recent version of the Renewable Energy Planning Database, published in April 2025, to help you identify existing large-scale renewable projects in your area. Find this in the ‘Energy Assets’ data folder.

Feature enhancement: uploading data

Have you enriched your LAEP+ experience by uploading local datasets, but now you have too many datasets to keep track of? If so, this update is for you: you can now create sub-categories of data within the local data folder to help organise your uploaded datasets.

Find out how to do it here.

Feature enhancement: Data Stories

When viewing a long Data Story, you may want to skip ahead to a specific section. That’s why we’ve made the dashes that appear below a Data Story (in preview or published mode) clickable, allowing you to click ahead to new sections.

Other small changes

Alongside some general bug fixes and optimisations, we’ve made the following UI changes that you may notice:

  • The local authority boundary colour on the map has changed from blue to purple, to improve visibility. You can still download the ‘Local Authority Boundary’ dataset and further customise the colour of this via the ‘Layers’ tab.

  • The default point size of Portfolio results on the map has been decreased, allowing you to easily differentiate between buildings.

As always, you can find ‘how-to’ guides and video guides in the LENZA Knowledgebase, as well as Live Chat support.
