Flexibility and retail market options

FLEXIGRID will develop and demonstrate a set of flexibility and retail market options for the distribution grid to allow cross-sectoral integration to unlock flexibility resources. The project will equip DSOs with advanced tools to enhance observability and controllability of distribution networks, while demonstrating and analysing new peer-based market solutions.

Energy Economics Lab is leading the work on grid services, market design, regulation and business models. This includes analysis on of barriers for adoption of innovative market designs, and an assessment of the existing policy framework and development of business models to allow for increased flexibility.
