1 October 2021: DemandFlex project formally started

On 1 October 2021, project "Improved Security of Electricity Supply by Demand Flexibility (acronym DemandFlex)“ formally started. It is a 5-year Energy Transition Fund (ETF) project funded by FPS Economy
with a total budget of EUR 1.15 m.
Making demand more flexible can be an essential lever to ensure the reliability of the electricity network without requiring massive investments in capacity.
However, there are still legal, economic and technical obstacles exploiting the full potential of flexible demand. DemandFlex project aims to study these obstacles, to provide solutions in order to make demand as flexible as possible and to demonstrate the beneficial effect of these solutions on the security of supply in electricity and the balance of the transmission network.
