Mitch develop two smart meter data access frameworks - developing expertise in the fair and open sharing of data. This culminated in the Metering review’s final report, which recommended a data sharing framework for network businesses to receive basic power quality data. This data is integral to the future grid - ensuring all networks have a basic understanding of local capacity and safety issues. This will contribute towards maximising hosting capacity and optimising future investment decision. Mitch also designed an enabling framework for consumer access to real-time data. This enabling framework would ensure the value of smart meter data is maximised on behalf of customers - contributing to new and emergent use cases of the future grid. Show less
