Objectives
This project seeks to develop, install and demonstrate a flexible real-time network that will enable the GB gas network to meet current and evolving needs. The project will install and demonstrate sensing technologies, associated hardware and software, and infrastructure in a representative section of the GB gas network. The project seeks to create a stream of real-time data and associated big data analytics that will afford an understanding of network operation never before achieved. If successful, this will allow a re-write of network fundamentals and demonstrate a flexible platform for both present and future new gas sources and downstream renewables.
