Innovation

Flexitricity is the demand response pioneer—our innovations have shaped demand-side flexibility since 2004. We're on a mission to create a greener and fairer energy system where everyone benefits.

Here are some of the projects we're currently working on:

• Innovative domestic EV Charging project with CrowdCharge: investigating ways to balance the peaks of electricity use associated with charging EVs at home.
  

• Quickturn: first realistic opportunity for smaller commercial energy users across Britain to benefit from demand side response.
  

Some of our past projects and 'firsts':

• First trade using the Balancing Mechanism Wider Access route to market
• First to trade a demand response asset in the Balancing Mechanism
• Footroom / Demand Turn-up - Britain’s first system for making use of excess wind power
  
• First aggregated Enhanced Frequency Control Capability (EFCC) call
• First aggregated Frequency Control by Demand Management (FCDM) call
  
• First aggregated Short-term Operating Reserve (STOR) call
• First post-fault dispatch for distribution networks
• First open-market demand response portfolio in GB
