The Data Sharing Team is delighted to invite you to the return of our Smart Meter Data Surgery! It’s been a year since we hosted our very first session exploring the Smart Meter data available on our Data Portal and we’re excited to share how things have progressed since then.

In this follow-up session, we’ll:

Recap the key highlights and takeaways from our first Data Surgery Showcase the latest updates, improvements, and enhancements made over the past 12 months Look ahead to what’s next for Smart Meter data and how you can be involved

This virtual, interactive session is designed to give you, our valued data portal users the opportunity to:

Engage directly with our internal teams Ask questions and share your perspectives Provide feedback that will help shape the future of the data we share

Scottish & Southern Electricity Networks (SSEN) is carrying out research to determine the wider value created by making the network’s energy data open to all (e.g. through the SSEN Distribution Data Portal, the SSEN Transmission Open Data Portal, and the Near Real-time Data Access (NeRDA) Portal)s

As part of this research, we are keen to hear from different types of stakeholder and energy data user and get your views on how SSEN’s open data helps to create value for you. We would be very grateful if you could answer this online survey, which will take no more than 5 minutes to complete.

Following the success of our first Data Surgery, we’re excited to announce the next online session where the Data Sharing team will dive deep into the Long Term Development Statements available on our Data Portal. This virtual session will focus on the Long Term Development Statements, giving you — as a valued data portal user — the opportunity to engage directly with our internal SSEN Distribution teams. It’s your chance to ask questions, discuss, and provide valuable feedback to help shape the future of the data we share.
