    PREFACE This Distribution System Capability Statement (DSCS) is provided by Muscat Electricity Distribution Company (MEDC) to fulfil its regulatory obligations under Condition number 32 of the MEDC Distribution and Supply Licence as well as the Oman Distribution Planning Code 4.4. MEDC supplies electricity to customers throughout the Muscat Governate as the owner and operator of its electricity distribution system originating from the 33kV busbars of the Oman Electricity Transmission Company (OETC) 132/33kV grid substations down to the final customer’s point of connection; which incorporates 33kV, 11kV and Low Voltage (LV) distribution system voltage levels and associated assets. The aim of this DSCS is to provide an up-to-date distribution system capability for the next three years (2021-2023) along with data to enable customers in identifying parts of the system; which offer opportunities for future connections or upgrading of existing connections to the MEDC system and where constraints currently exist or potentially could exist in future. In addition to the required data made available annually as part of DSCS; MEDC additionally has provided improved detailed system connectivity and additional technical data of assets, impact analysis of Cost Reflective Tariff (CRT) on MEDC customers and an overview of the photovoltaic (PV) system penetration in the MEDC distribution system which is gaining momentum in our licenced area as well. These additions are expected to provide customers and other stakeholders with a transparent understanding of MEDC distribution system and operational overview, sufficient technical parameters to undertake initial system capabilities assessment and the overall distribution system development. Additionally, this year the world including MEDC customers and hence its network have experienced a force-majure event triggered due to the COVID-19 pandemic which has temporarily but significantly impacted electricity demand including future growth in the MEDC licenced area.

This year we have taken the decision to further provide detailed system data in spreadsheet format.

We hope this provides our customers and other stakeholders with a transparent and usable platform to assess possible points of connection within the MEDC licenced area and to assess the opportunities it provides.

Prehistoric rock art also exists in Wadi 'Adayy. 696 A fleet sent by al-Hajjaj b. Yusuf, the Umayyad governor of Iraq, is said to anchor at Bandar Jissah and land troops at Yiti, who march to Wadi Hatat where they are defeated by the Omanis. 865 Fortress town of Dama, location of an important pre-Islamic fair and site of present-day al-Sib, is destroyed by floods. 9th through Muscat is mentioned by Arab sources as a fishing 13th centuries village and as a source of water for ships setting off across the Indian Ocean. 11th century Muscat becomes a prominent port under the Kings of Hormuz, based at Qalhat in Oman. late 15th century Muscat eclipses Qalhat as Oman’s main coastal entrepôt.
