The People Environment Achievement (PEA) Awards that honours the individuals and teams behind the products, services and businesses that are changing the face of our planet has released a shortlist of the finalists for the 2023 awards.

Among the finalists, Advanced Infrastructure has been shortlisted for the 'Energy' and 'Digital Technology' awards categories.

Advanced Infrastructure develops and provides spatial analytics and digital twins for the energy transition. The company helps local authorities, distribution network operators and consultants to plan the roll-out of low carbon infrastructure.

Founded in 2020, Advanced Infrastructure has developed an innovative net zero Local Area Energy Planning Tool (LAEP+).

The net-zero planning spatial analytics platform for Local Area Energy Plans puts hundreds of datasets and analysis tools in the hands of local authorities, energy network operators and stakeholders. This supports planners to identify the optimal locations of low-carbon technologies such as EV charge points and heat pumps as well as informing long-term energy strategies and plans.

LAEP+ uses digital twins to support decision making by local stakeholders and forecasts network capacity, building retrofits, heat networks, and EV rollouts all in one platform. Hundreds of API integrations ensure that all decisions are made on the latest, building stock, sociodemographic and energy network data.

Over the past three years, the company has built a client base of public and private sector organisations including UK Power Networks, Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks, Oxfordshire County Council, and Dundee City Council as well as B2B and B2C organisations such as Zapmap and Cepro.
