The days of substations filled with copper cable are coming to an end. Smart grids need smart communications, and peer-to-peer communication within and between substations is set to quickly become business as usual for UK power networks. Facilitating this transition is IEC 61850, a standard launched in 2004 and updated in 2011, which provides a new approach to automation and communication in substations.

HyNet will capture and store over a million tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) from industry and store this offshore in depleted gas fields in Liverpool Bay, which are currently operated by Eni. HyNet will also subsequently produce hydrogen as a fuel for both heating, power and transport. A UK-first at such large scale, the first phase will be operational by 2024.
