2. Kick Off Phase

Once the procurement has finished and contracts are signed, you will need to know what you can expect from UK Power Networks as a stakeholder in the development of the LAEP.

What you can expect from us a partner in your LAEP

When developing a Local Area Energy Plan, your local authority may ask you to engage with us or include us as a stakeholder in a LAEP steering group. In all cases, get in touch with us early and we can support the level of involvement required.

As a stakeholder in a LAEP steering group you can expect the following support from us:

• Onboarding onto our digital tools
• Explaining our processes that enable the LAEP to influence our network development plans
• Linking into other teams as required to facilitate technical knowledge sharing, for example our flexibility or connections teams

Let us know if there are other support items you require.
