Phase 2 summary report

In 2023 the Energy Security Board (ESB) Data Strategy tasked the AER with improving third party access to network data through the Low-voltage Network Visibility project.

The project is being undertaken in three phases:

• Phase 1 defined the network data that is required by stakeholders making CER planning decision. This was completed in July 2023, and the outcomes are published in the consultation paper.
• Phase 2 tests the challenges and value in delivering the datasets identified in Phase 1 through a range of real-world trials.
• Phase 3 will propose a pathway for ongoing delivery of priority datasets to the market, informed by the trials and considering the varied opportunities and challenges for different networks. 

This summary report forms Phase 2 of the project.
