GB network coverage
Every grid supply point we can plot, mapped.
A grid supply point (GSP) is where the transmission system hands over to a distribution network — the boundary that decides which capacity, requirement and queue apply. This is GridOptic's own registry, plotted from real published coordinates.
The registry total is unavailable. The static coordinate snapshot has not been reconciled to the current canonical registry; treat the points as illustrative.
One decision layer
Locate. Price. Underwrite.
Three questions decide whether a grid asset deserves more time and capital. GridOptic answers them on one comparable evidence base.
What can flexibility earn?
Benchmark the local going rate with GO-LFI and build an explicit revenue range.
How bankable is the answer?
See sources, timestamps, assumptions and confidence before the number enters a model.
The platform
Real product. Real evidence.
Move between the benchmark, the network and the asset case without losing the source trail.
GO-LFI / Price
The going rate for local flexibility.
Benchmark GO-LFI (GridOptic Local Flexibility Index) annual revenue per MW by market, location and year from published contract evidence — every value carries price and utilisation confidence.

Forecast / Underwrite
Build the case, uncertainty visible.
Create cautious, expected and upside revenue ranges grounded in GO-LFI. Observed data stays separate from assumptions, with an evidence rating attached.

Evidence / Coverage
See what is well evidenced, and what is not.
Priced procurement and dispatch share by network, tracked openly — where a DNO has published little, GridOptic shows the gap instead of quietly hiding it.

Confidence belongs beside the number.
Nothing on GridOptic claims more certainty than the data supports.

Credibility without theatre
The proof is in the data and the method.
GB distribution + system context
GridOptic connects published distribution network operator (DNO) data with NESO (the national energy system operator) context to make local opportunities comparable.
Auditable methodology
Definitions, confidence logic and caveats are explicit. The benchmark can be challenged rather than merely trusted.

Questions before access
Evidence first. No false promises.
What is GO-LFI?
The GridOptic Local Flexibility Index (GO-LFI) is an evidence-rated annual revenue per MW benchmark derived from published flexibility procurement and market records. It is designed to show the going rate without overstating certainty.
Is a GridOptic forecast a revenue guarantee?
No. It is an indicative, evidence-rated range. GridOptic makes the assumptions and confidence visible so teams can use the result proportionately in screening and underwriting.
What data does GridOptic use?
Published data from all six GB distribution network operator (DNO) ownership groups and NESO (the national energy system operator), including network capacity, connection registers, future energy scenarios (DFES), tenders, contracts and dispatch evidence where available.
How fresh is the data?
Each dataset retains its source publication date. Source checks are scheduled, but a check is not proof of a successful import. Freshness varies by DNO and dataset; use Data Coverage to inspect recorded dates and gaps.
Who is GridOptic for?
Asset-side developers, infrastructure investors, asset owners, virtual power plant (VPP) and demand-side response (DSR) operators, site owners and utility teams making location, revenue and portfolio decisions.
