AIP Innovation in Distribution

Kick off the day with a warm welcome and an opportunity to network with fellow attendees over coffee. This is a great time to make new connections and set the stage for a day of insightful discussions.

Stefan Sadnicki, SVP for Copperleaf in Europe, will provide insights into the theme of the event, setting the stage for a day of engaging and informative discussions. This session will highlight the importance of asset investment planning in the distribution sector, highlighting the trends and challenges that will be explored throughout the day.

Anglian Water partnered with Copperleaf to enhance its decision-making processes, proactively manage asset risk, and establish an industry-leading investment planning practice. The Copperleaf solution pulls in data to support and enhance investment planning decisions, allowing the organisation to identify the highest-value investments, respond quickly to changes, and maintain a clear line-of-sight between the company’s strategic goals, outcome delivery incentives, and individual project values.

This session will include a look at the Anglian Water Implementation:

• Value Framework Highlights
• Managing a Regulatory Submission
• Justifying an Enhancement Programme
• Predictive Analytics for Climate Vulnerable Mains
• Rigorous Cost Estimation

Achieved Benefits Include:

• Responding to Scrutiny
• Extra Funding for Enhancements
• €144M for Climate Vulnerable Mains

What’s Next

As one of the newest members of the Copperleaf Community, Chris Harris, Head of Asset Planning at SSEN Distribution will share the challenges that distribution network operators face, why they selected an AIP solution, and their vision for streamlined asset investment planning.

Stefan Sadnicki will facilitate a lively discussion with our three presenters from Endeavour Energy, Anglian Water, and SSEN Distribution. This session is designed to foster a dynamic exchange of ideas and insights, not only among the panelists but also with the audience. Attendees are encouraged to ask questions, share their perspectives, and engage in meaningful dialogue about the topics presented so far.

Enjoy a delicious lunch while continuing to build connections with other attendees. This informal setting provides a great opportunity to discuss the morning’s insights and make connections.
