Simplified electricity transmission system from UK (2020) – ATTEST project

This dataset was prepared under the framework of the ATTEST project, financed by the European Commission with grant number 864298. The dataset contains information about a simplification of the real UK transmission grid as in 2020. The grid topology contains 30 nodes, 100 branches and 98 generators. It is operated at 400 kV and 275 kV. A network model (MatPower format) including the grid information (including grid topology, nodes, generators, consumption, all of which connected by power lines or transformers) is provided.
