ENODA provides a system which is agnostic to the nature of supply and demand. To do that though, there needs to be one fundamental enabling technology. It has to sit in the location of the transformer just as the router sits in the former location of switch in telephone exchanges, and they both transform the nature of those networks.

This year, Ofgem released a Call for Input (CfI) on the Future of Distributed Flexibility. Ofgem begins by introducing some of the issues which are resulting in a lower uptake of distributed flexibility on the electricity system than there ought to be.

Response to Shell Energy Security Scenarios and meeting the long-term challenge of climate change

Last month was European Sustainability Week, which focussed on the theme ‘Going Green and Digital for Europe’s Energy Transition’. With the continuation of the conflict in Ukraine threatening the continent’s energy supply, and a commitment to decarbonisation by 2050, Europe is devoting significant attention to ensuring energy security. Despite the immediate nature of this winter’s gas crisis, however, the theme of the week demonstrated that Europe sees an opportunity to accelerate the long-term transition to clean, reliable, affordable energy.

ENODA’s response in full to the review of Electricity Market Arrangements consultation. We have largely focussed on areas we believe need to be amended in order to take full advantage of new, effective technologies like Enoda’s Prime. For this reason, we have focussed on those sections which look at balancing and ancillary services markets and given no opinion on questions of investment in or acceleration of low-carbon generation.

A legacy grid design, to be simultaneously reliable, affordable, and sustainable, requires solutions from first principles innovation to be fit for purpose in a Net Zero future. The total value of the Balancing Markets more than doubled during the 2019-2021 period
