Development Plan for Distribution Network Automation
The Distribution Network Development Plan (DNDP) is a strategic document mandated by the EU Directive 2019/944 to be developed, published, and updated biennially by European Distribution System Operators (DSOs). The document aims to identify prevailing practices and propose initial insights into Distribution. This paper is a preprint of a paper submitted to IET Renewable Power Generation and is subject to Institution of Engineering and Technology Copyright. Learn how distribution enterprises can plan ERP implementation for network expansion and system consolidation with stronger workflow orchestration, governance, cloud modernization, AI-enabled automation, and operational resilience. Distribution networks have traditionally had low levels of automation and control, primarily centered around the use of SCADA to monitor medium voltage (MV) feeders together with a lower usage of distribution management, voltage control, and automatic reconfiguration systems.
