Derived map of global electricity transmission and distribution lines

Description: 

Overview:

Global results from gridfinder model, produced by ESMAP based on joint work with Facebook and others. Uses night-time lights, road networks and existing grid network data to predict the location of transmission and distribution lines globally. Validated in several countries with ~70% accuracy at 1 km.

Zambia - Electricity Transmission Network

Description: 

Combination of the following data sources:
1) data collected and prepared for a project of the World Bank Group in April 2014
2) The Africa Infrastructure Country Diagnostic (AICD) study

Vietnam - Electricity Transmission Network

Description: 

This data has been prepared for a World Bank project and represents the existing transmission lines, substations and power stations as of 2016.

This data was obtained in a 2 phase process:
1. geo-reference of PDF map
2. digitization of transmission network

Due to the quality of the PDF map, the geo-referencing process resulted in isolated horizontal and vertical displacements of 2 to 10 km; the final product contains only the rough location of the network elements and it is not suitable for applications requiring high accuracy data.

US, Romania, Jamaica and India - META tool: Inputs Transmission Distribution

Description: 

Contains information about each delivery technology for US, Romania, Jamaica and India. base year: 2010.

This information is used as input in the Model for Electricity Technology Assessment (META) tool.

META yields levelized costs for generation, transmission, and distribution for each electricity supply technology option from a relatively few input parameters. One of the features of META is that it allows for integration of environmental externalities, such as local pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Users can easily see the cost of adding or expanding generation from a...
