Load growth map

Hosting capacity maps

We are committed to providing our community with relevant data and insights and plan to launch an interactive hosting capacity map service. The service will support new and modified connections for both increased load and distributed generation on the high voltage network.

This will enable identification of locations on the Orion distribution network that may be subject to congestion for a 12 month period ahead.

We are also considering providing multi-year forecasts to better support short- and medium-term planning.

Hosting capacity maps survey

Hosting capacity maps survey

To assist us in designing the new data service, we would like to ask that you complete a short survey so we can better understand your unique data requirements.

The survey should only take 5-10 minutes to complete, and the questions are optional.

Please complete and submit the survey before looking at the prototype load growth maps below.

Load growth maps

The map below is a prototype which shows the respective load growth capacity within Orion's network for 2025 – 2029 based on our previous Asset Management Plan.

Load growth capacity is the headroom for adding more load rather than generation hosting capacity.
