Abstract
The previous chapters have established the principles which underpin substation design and management. This chapter will highlight some of the medium- and long-term factors that could influence the direction of future substation design. It will focus on changes in the energy landscape and new developments in technology that may challenge the designer in their traditional way of thinking and consequently affect the design process and asset management strategy.
