The projects that now have a date to connect by.

A committed project has a date it must energise by, and everything electrical sits on the critical path to it. Transformers and switchgear can take a year to arrive, so the party that wins that work tends to be chosen early — often before anything is visible on site.

GC/2026/0932written for electrical and connections

49.9 MW project needs its connection by October 2027

  • Connection date fixed for October 2027 at 132 kV.
  • 49.9 MW at a single site, project company incorporated 2024.
  • No electrical contractor recorded on the parent's earlier projects.
  • The parent holds three other committed projects in the same region.

A fixed energisation date thirteen months out, a transformer that will take most of that to arrive, and no established electrical contractor at a parent with three more projects behind this one.

An invented example of the shape of a card. See a real one, opened.

What puts a card here
A project fixes its connection date and its electrical works become time-critical.
When the money moves
Long-lead equipment is ordered as soon as the date is fixed.
You sell
HV electrical, cabling, connection services, ICP work

Three things the card tells you that a list cannot.

The application is the start of it. What makes the call worth making is what the other records say about the company holding it, 13 of them read together.

The size of the market first, without names: UK battery storage projects, counted weekly on CapexRadar, the engine behind Stanfell.

  1. The connection date, which is the date every electrical package is measured against.
  2. The capacity and the voltage implied, so you can tell in one line whether it is your kind of job.
  3. Whether the project company has used an electrical contractor on its earlier projects, which tells you whether the door is open.

Who reads this one.

  • HV electrical contractors
  • Independent connection providers
  • Cabling and jointing
  • Transformers and switchgear
  • Protection, control and SCADA

Questions about this one.

Why does the connection date matter more than planning?
Because the electrical work is scheduled backwards from it. A project with planning and no date can wait years; a project with a firm date has to order its transformer this quarter.
Does it include distribution-connected projects?
Yes, where the connection is recorded with a capacity and a date. The card says which voltage level, so you can skip the ones that are not yours.

If this is what you sell, this is your category.

You sell HV electrical, cabling, connection services, ICP work. Choose “Electrical and connections” when you sign in and every card you are shown is read for that trade.
