📣 PRESS RELEASE 📣 Electron, Arup , Energy Systems Catapult , and partners join forces for phase 2 of Flex Markets Unlocked 🎉 The UK Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) has chosen the consortium to continue with phase 2 of the innovation project, which combines their expertise in digitalisation and flexibility markets, to develop solutions which will boost the flexibility of the UK’s energy system. The project will build three components: a Universal Market Register, along with the relevant data standards and primacy rules. The combined benefit will help more flexibility service providers (FSPs) offer their flexible capacity into markets efficiently, breaking down barriers to entry 🙌 Read more ➡️ https://hubs.la/Q02VvvbD0 Harrison Leaf Mikka Alon Chris Broadhurst Jo-Jo Hubbard Marc Laitin Jeremy Macfarland

📣 𝗕𝗜𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗗𝗘𝗥 𝗨𝗣𝗗𝗔𝗧𝗘📣 The first simulation for BiTraDER's curtailment obligations market design has taken place 🎉 Partnering Electricity North West , Electron, AFRY , and LCP Delta , BiTraDER aims to design a market that allows connected energy resources to trade their curtailment obligations - helping them avoid curtailment when the network is congested. The simulation used real-world data, including asset and network characteristics, to test how that market works and help refine trading rules. 💡 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗕𝗶𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗗𝗘𝗥 𝗮𝗶𝗺 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲? Integrations to allow two-way data streams are the key to enabling peer-to-peer trading of curtailment positions between assets, coordinated through Electron’s neutral market platform, ElectronConnect. These two-way, dynamic data flows for flexible load management will encourage more DERs to participate with less friction, more flex market opportunities - and more visibility and insights for all parties involved, whether DSO, tech provider, or energy asset owner 🙌 If you'd like to learn more about project BiTraDER, dip into our blog ➡️ https://hubs.la/Q02XGGx20 If you own or aggregate energy assets and would like to get involved in this project, then get in touch today ➡️ https://hubs.la/Q02XGxll0
