Lots of exciting updates and enhancements to announce this month! From new data to new features, check out the details below:
New non-domestic datasets | After many requests, we've expanded our dataset offerings to include non-domestic versions of several key Advanced Infrastructure datasets. Explore the 'Non-Domestic ASHP Potential' and 'Non-Domestic GSHP Potential' datasets within the ‘Renewable Potential’ folder.
Additionally, you can now find 'Non-Domestic Heat Demand' under the ‘Energy Demand’ folder.
Note: Non-domestic rooftop PV potential remains available within the existing ‘Rooftop PV Potential’ dataset. |
Updated datasets | ‘Embedded Capacity Register - Under 1MW’ and ‘Embedded Capacity Register - 1MW and Above’ have been updated with the most recent data from UK Power Networks.
Keep an eye out - you’ll also see new versions of ‘LCT Connections - Primary’ and ‘LCT Connections - Secondary’ added to LAEP+ in the next week. |
Feature enhancement: Portfolios | Introducing: Local data in Portfolios! We are excited to announce a highly anticipated addition to Portfolios that we have been working hard to deliver for you.
All compatible locally-uploaded datasets can now be utilised in Portfolios. You can find them in the ‘Local Data’ section when creating a dataset-based rule.
Note: currently CSV data cannot be used in a Portfolio, and for building-level filtering a UPRN column must exist in the dataset. |
Feature enhancement: Portfolios | You can now add additional dataset columns to a Portfolio to enrich your output without impacting your results! Simply click the ‘Add additional data’ button on the Portfolios input screen, and make your selections.
These columns will then be included in the table output of your Portfolio and visible when you click on a building. |
Feature enhancement: Projects | There's a new tool available to view the length of cables you’ve drawn to link new connections with the existing network. Simply select the ‘cable’ option in Projects, then click an asset on the map to start drawing. |
Other small changes | Minor bug fixes and UI improvements (e.g.a tooltip has been added to explain the ‘Proposed Project Date’ field when creating a Project, integrated guidance has been added to Scenarios, and a new loading bar has been added for large-scale Projects). |
LSOA names added as an additional column in a Portfolio
As always, you can find ‘how-to’ guides and video guides in the Knowledgebase, as well as Live Chat support.
