Abstract
Any artificial infrastructure built in a territory causes changes in its environment, especially when it is a question of large or extensive infrastructures such as high-voltage transmission lines (HVTLs). Such changes are perceived unevenly by the different groups affected or involved. However, all of them can obstruct the development of a project of this type of infrastructure. For this reason, it is increasingly necessary to manage the stakeholders in the different phases of the development of an HVTL project. This article presents the methodological proposal designed to add the management of stakeholders’ opinions by integrating it into the geodesign-based workflow for the development of HVTL projects, giving geographic meaning to each of their opinions, allowing their analysis together with the rest of the geospatial information of the project, reusing the “feedback-iteration-consensus” mechanisms, discovering interactions and synergies or incompatibilities, improving the understanding and finally facilitating the consensus of all parties. In this way, it is possible to manage the development of the projects with a single workflow, in which the results are obtained (development stages) and the decisions that are adopted are used both for the technical part and for the management of the project’s stakeholders.
Highlights
The implementation of an high-voltage transmission line (HVTL) is a necessary tool in the energy transition that must comply with renewable generation plans
This study explores the possibility of merging the geospatial information management of this type of project with the management of stakeholders by expanding our previous work [4], incorporating their management in the workflow, and which is supported by the sustainability model of Red Eléctrica de España
Our hypothesis is that the use of the workflow based on geodesign for the development of HVTL projects, such as that implemented by REE, will help to manage geographically, and jointly, both the projected assets and those in service, with the stakeholders identified in each case
Summary
The implementation of an high-voltage transmission line (HVTL) is a necessary tool in the energy transition that must comply with renewable generation plans These plans require the development and extension of the electricity transmission grid to guarantee a diversified renewable generation mix, including solar, hydro, wind, biomass, etc., allowing the connection of many producers from small to large, and that adapts to the different territorial characteristics. The use of planning support systems and decision support systems allows the development of these projects to be redirected towards a new methodology used to refine the corporate geographic information system, in which our geodesign-based workflow of the HVTL [4] is implemented. Our hypothesis is that the use of the workflow based on geodesign for the development of HVTL projects, such as that implemented by REE, will help to manage geographically, and jointly, both the projected assets and those in service, with the stakeholders identified in each case. BESTGRID [11] consolidates the need for close contact between REE and the different involved stakeholders
