Details

The competition looked for innovative and replicable flexibility exchange solutions. Flexibility exchanges are marketplaces for energy system flexibility assets, offered by multiple providers (sellers) of flexibility to multiple buyers.

The flexibility to be traded was provided by domestic or business consumers from a range of sources, including:

  • energy storage
  • demand-side response (DSR) and demand reduction; or
  • generation

Up to £4 million has been made available from 2019 to 2021. The competition will support 3 demonstration exchange projects to be operational by March 2021 with final trials and reporting to be completed by December 2021.
