AusNet GridView Portal

A freely accessible map of our electricity distribution network, right down to our low voltage lines. (It’s like Google Maps for electricity).

Overview

At AusNet, we believe in a decarbonised energy future. Distributed energy resources (DER), like community batteries, are a key piece of this puzzle. But these resources require planning and an understanding of the network.


We partnered with Rosetta Analytics to create GridView. This portal:

  • provides in-depth network information, including distribution substations and low voltage lines, switches and fuses
  • allows customers to access and evaluate data specific to where their community energy project is located
  • allows us to easily share network information and data that can empower our customers and the community to complete community energy projects.

What’s new on GridView?

Here are some recent updates we’ve made to GridView to make it easier for our customers and communities to understand our network:

  • Search by feeder name – for example, you can search ‘BN11’ to see the entire Benalla 11 feeder highlighted in yellow on the map. A feeder is a 22kV distribution line.
  • More data on each 22kV feeder, such as total number of customers and total feeder length.
  • Improved usability – for example, a ‘clear selection’ option so you can clear all selected items.
  • More network asset details by council area - for example, you can select zone substations and/or distribution substations for a council area.
  • More distribution substation data - for example, total number of domestic customers, total number of commercial customers, total number of solar customers.
