“Carefully managing electric vehicle demand could cut all U.S. electric bills by 10% annually, regardless of whether a customer owns an EV, according to new research from Brattle and ev. energy.”

An important change by the UK energy regulator: consumers with EVs, heat pumps and batteries in their homes now have access to flex markets without being dependent on their supplier

On its own, P483 might seem like a minor technical change. But in the bigger picture, it’s a crucial piece of the puzzle that will unlock new opportunities for customers to participate in the Green Revolution effortlessly. 📢 What does P483 do? It enables customers who haven’t yet been transitioned to half-hourly settlement by their supplier to still access the flexibility market. Through aggregators, they can use their smart devices to shift energy usage, contributing to a more dynamic and responsive grid. 📣 Why is this important? Two big reasons: 1. It’s a preview of Market-wide Half-Hourly Settlement (MHHS) giving us a glimpse of what a fully flexible future looks like. 2. It normalises flexible load as business-as-usual moving it from a “nice to have” to a reliable, scalable tool for system balancing. This is about making flexibility inclusive, accessible, and impactful even before MHHS is fully rolled out. It’s about empowering customers to be part of the energy transition without needing to lift a finger. Lastly, for those following the progress and accountability of government's flexibility roadmap actions, Ofgem just completed its first of many actions and we did it before the deadline. ✊ THE ASSOCIATION FOR DECENTRALISED ENERGY Sarah Honan Elexon   🎤 P483 in a nutshell: - previous code mods have opened up wholesale market and balancing mechanism to aggregators - but there's still a rule saying their customer must be half hourly settled to be allowed in - currently only about 3% of customers are HH settled - and it's entirely in the control of their supplier - so this is a big blocker to aggregator flex - P483 will REMOVE this rule - opening up those markets for aggregators

One of the many interesting pages in the Future Energy Scenarios 2025, published today by NESO (🇬🇧 National Energy System Operator).

It focuses on the why, how and what of demand side flexibility.
Key: reward consumers, build trust, automate and smart tariffs.
EV smart charging gateway to more residential flex.

screenshot of report page: harnessing demand side flexibility to benefit both consumers and the system
Demand flexibility reduces both peak electricity demand and the need for supply side infrastructure. Rewarding consumers for their high levels of engagement in demand flex has the potential to halve peak electricity demand

Interesting new aggregator for consumer flexibility in Norway: reduce the load on the power grid with your EV, for example, and earn between NOK 500 and NOK 4,000 (€40 - €440) per year. Works with any energy supplier (and soon also with the Norgespris capped electricity price).

If you build it, they will come.

UK DSO National Grid Energy Distribution has worked to remove barriers for consumer energy resources participating in its local flexibility market. With great success, over 50% of all #EV chargers in its area are now registered.

www.linkedin.comIf you build it, they will come | Jaap BurgerIf you build it, they will come Applying that well-worn phrase here: 'It' is a local flexibility market. 'They' refers to the flexibility inherent in EV home charging that has not previously been used to support the local grid. National Grid Electricity Distribution's impressive statistics show that more than 50% of EV chargers in its area are registered to deliver flexibility services. In terms of the number of assets, 90% of those registered are from domestic households, mainly in the form of EV chargers but also including heat pumps, for example. However, the majority of the registered capacity (912 MW out of a total of 1,487 MW) is being provided by just 1% of the assets: commercial and industrial ones. What does this demonstrate? There is room for all types and sizes of flexibility, both large and small. Increasing market participation boosts competitiveness, reducing the costs of deploying flexibility and benefiting all users. Put simply, lowering the barriers lowers the costs. Many European countries could learn from efficient and simple market access for small-scale flexibility. All too often, barriers to consumer energy participation in local flexibility markets, congestion management and other services still exist. See the EU Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER) report on this subject for more information. For smart services that control an EV charging point or heat pump, participation in local flexibility markets is a relatively simple building block, on top of optimisation for static/dynamic tariff incentives, for example. Stacking is an efficient way to unlock more value and increase the benefits for users and the system. Policymakers and regulators should ask themselves why EVs, heat pumps, home batteries and so on are not yet contributing to a more efficient local grid in their area. Talk to DSOs and, above all, to the smart services that can bundle the flexibility of these small assets. What's holding them back? Is it time for a European benchmark to show what percentage of these types of assets are registered for a market-based flexibility contribution?
