Session 7 July 2022
The FlexForum discussed the structure and content of a Flexibility Plan to set out the practical, scalable and least-regrets steps, and the approach, required to use the services that DER can provide, particularly flexibility, to maximise the benefits of DER for Aotearoa New Zealand. The FlexForum wants to finalise an initial Flexibility Plan by 31 August 2022. The group agreed to develop the actions based on the journey for a flexibility provider. The group also discussed practical and regulatory barriers to action and ideas for a robust delivery model.
