Flexibility Digital Infrastructure: Strategic direction setting

Share the page

This open letter sets out Ofgem’s policy positions on whether common digital infrastructure is needed across NESO and DSO flexibility markets.

To support the participation of small-scale flexible assets in NESO and DSO flexibility markets, Ofgem is considering where common digital infrastructure might be needed across flexibility market processes. We previously decided that Flexibility Market Asset Registration should be delivered as common digital infrastructure by Elexon as the Market Facilitator. Now we are considering whether there are other steps in the flexibility market process where common digital infrastructure might be needed.

This open letter provides our current policy position for each step of the process and outlines our forward monitoring approach.
