Product Demo
Watch the live demonstration of GPS-tagged LV asset capture, automated OpenDSS model generation, phase unbalance reports, and net-metering impact analysis outputs.
Geospatial LV Asset Capture
Mobile app for field teams to GPS-tag every 400/230 V asset distribution transformers, LV outgoing lines (ACSR WASP/ANT/GNAT), service cables, and consumer meter points producing a digital, map-integrated LV network representation absent from current FDRANA deployments.
OpenDSS Load Flow & Voltage Analysis
Field data automatically generates OpenDSS-compatible electrical network models for load flow, voltage profile compliance (NEPRA ±5% tolerance), and technical loss quantification at transformer, LV feeder, and service cable level powered by the EPRI-developed OpenDSS engine used by regulators globally.
Automated Phase Unbalance Detection
Systematic identification and severity classification of phase unbalance across LV lines directly addressing the diagnostic gap unresolved by FDRANA and Synergi Electric with optimal consumer phase reassignment plans to reduce neutral overloading and transformer losses.
DER & Net-Metering Impact Assessment
Dedicated module for evaluating existing cumulative and prospective rooftop solar PV impact on LV networks voltage rise, reverse power flow, transformer loading enabling DISCOs to meet NEPRA's DER interconnection technical due diligence obligations at scale.
Hosting Capacity & Pre-Connection Analysis
Estimate maximum additional DER capacity admissible on each LV feeder before voltage, thermal, or protection constraints are breached. Generate evidence-based technical approval or deferral recommendations for new net-metering applicants suitable for NEPRA regulatory submission.
CAPEX Scenario Planning & GIS Dashboard
Scenario-based transformer upgrade, conductor replacement, parallel augmentation, and load growth forecasting studies all simulated before physical investment. GIS-integrated map dashboard with real-time asset status and performance overlays across DISCO territories.

How LT-LoadFlow Works
- Field Digitization: DISCO field teams use the mobile geospatial app to GPS-tag all LV assets i.e., transformers, LV lines, service cables, and consumer meter points within the pilot territory.
- Automated Model Generation: Validated, geo-referenced field data is exported to the web platform, which automatically generates an OpenDSS-compatible electrical network model.
- Load Flow Simulation: The OpenDSS engine executes load flow, voltage profile, and technical loss analysis at transformer, feeder, and consumer node level.
- Phase Unbalance & DER Analysis: The platform automatically detects and classifies phase unbalance severity and simulates existing and prospective DER/net-metering impact on each LV line.
- Planning & CAPEX Scenarios: Engineering teams run scenario-based studies transformer upgrades, conductor replacement, phase rebalancing, load growth forecasting and generate evidence-based CAPEX submissions for NEPRA.
- GIS Dashboard & Reporting: All outputs voltage profiles, loss reports, hosting capacity, net-metering impact are visualized on the GIS-integrated dashboard and exported for regulatory reporting.
How LT-LoadFlow Compares to Existing DISCO Tools
Pakistan's DISCOs currently use FDRANA and Synergi Electric for distribution analysis. Neither tool addresses the complete LV analytical requirement:

Frequently Asked Questions
Which DISCOs is LT-LoadFlow designed for?
LT-LoadFlow is designed for all Pakistani DISCOs — GEPCO, IESCO, LESCO, FESCO, MEPCO, PESCO, HESCO, SEPCO, QESCO, and TESCO. It has been formally submitted to the Ministry of Energy (Power Division), the URAAN Pakistan Secretariat, and NEPRA for a national pilot deployment across all DISCO territories.
How does this differ from FDRANA and Synergi Electric?
FDRANA does not support GPS/geospatial asset mapping, lacks phase unbalance evaluation, and cannot assess DER/rooftop solar impact on LV networks. Synergi Electric lacks a dedicated module for evaluating the cumulative impact of existing net-metering connections on transformer loading, voltage profiles, and reverse power flow. LT-LoadFlow addresses all of these gaps in a single, nationally sovereign platform.
What simulation engine is used, and is it internationally recognized?
All power system simulations are executed using OpenDSS, developed by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI, USA). OpenDSS is consistent with internationally recognized power flow and distribution analysis standards, and is routinely used by regulatory bodies and utilities globally for LV and DER studies — making outputs appropriate for NEPRA regulatory submission.
Is the One-Year Free Pilot truly at zero cost to the DISCO?
Yes. Chief Consultant Pakistan is offering full platform onboarding, LV network digitization support, structured training workshops for DISCO planning and DER management staff, and complete technical and analytical assistance — all at zero cost for the duration of the one-year pilot under the URAAN Pakistan initiative.
Who owns the data collected during the pilot?
Full data ownership and sovereignty is retained by the respective DISCO and the Government of Pakistan at all times. There is no third-party data commercialization. Upon DISCO or Government direction, the complete platform stack — application, models, and all data — can be transferred to DISCO, PITC, or Government cloud infrastructure with no vendor lock-in.
How does LT-LoadFlow support NEPRA compliance for net-metering?
The DER and Net-Metering impact module enables DISCOs to meet their NEPRA technical due diligence obligations under the Distributed Generation and Net Metering Regulations. It provides both retroactive assessment of existing connections and pre-connection simulation for new applicants, producing evidence-based technical approval or deferral recommendations appropriate for NEPRA regulatory submission.
