DNO Applications

UK Grid Connection Applications

Get connected. Without the guesswork.

We manage the technical and administrative path between your renewable energy project and the Distribution Network Operator, from early feasibility through to the connection offer.

BUILT AROUND YOUR PROJECT

Generation, storage and constrained export.

From a commercial rooftop solar array to a multi-technology site, we shape the application around how the electrical system will actually operate.

COMMERCIAL SOLAR PV
New generation systems and extensions to existing installations.

BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE
Standalone battery systems and solar-plus-storage projects.

EXPORT-LIMITED SYSTEMS
G100 export-limitation strategies and associated technical information.

LV AND HV CONNECTIONS
Project-specific coordination for low-voltage and high-voltage connections.

how it works

01 FEASIBILITY

02 TECHNICAL SUBMISSION

We review the site, proposed capacity, point of connection and operating intent. We then establish the correct application route before detailed work begins.

• G98 or G99 route review
• Proposed export capacity
• Generation and storage review
• Key risk identification
• Initial information-gap assessment

02 TECHNICAL SUBMISSION

We prepare a coherent DNO application pack containing the project information and engineering documents required for technical assessment.

• DNO application schedules
• Single-line diagrams
• Equipment specifications
• Inverter and battery information
• Protection details
• Export-limitation information

03 DNO COORDINATION

04 CONNECTION OFFER REVIEW

We act as the technical point of contact during the assessment process, responding to engineering queries and requests for further information.

• DNO query management
• Design clarifications
• Additional information requests
• Application progress tracking
• Coordination with the wider project tea

04 CONNECTION OFFER REVIEW

When the connection offer arrives, we translate its technical conditions, constraints and dependencies into a practical next-step plan.

• Connection conditions
• Permitted import and export capacities
• Network reinforcement requirements
• Protection and metering obligations
• Export limitations
• Design implications and next actions

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

When should we start the grid connection application?

As early as practical. Connection constraints can materially affect system capacity, export strategy, equipment selection and the project programme.

Early assessment reduces the risk of developing a design around capacity the network cannot provide.

Can you guarantee the capacity we request?

When should we start the grid connection application?

No. The Distribution Network Operator controls its network and determines the connection capacity it can offer.

Our role is to submit a technically coherent application, respond efficiently to engineering queries and help you understand the available options if the requested capacity is constrained.
