Our Distribution Future Energy Scenarios (DFES) dataset contains information on various parameters such as energy usage, generation and Low Carbon Technologies (LCT) volumes, forecasting this data out to 2050. This data is produced for 5 different scenarios, assuming different rates of uptakes for various technologies. This dataset contains this information for our whole EHV network, with filters on the left to aid with selection.
This dataset will be familiar to users of our DFES prior to our 2024 publication. We recommend this dataset for users who are looking to view the information in a table format.
Our 2024 DFES report and methodology can be found in the export tab under the "Alternative Exports" section at the bottom of the export list
