FlexForum is doing stuff in three areas. A working version of the FlexForum Insights was recently shared with Members and we are aiming to make it public by mid-March 2025 ahead of providing advice to the Energy Competitive Taskforce. 2. Flexibility Plan 2.0. We are updating the to-do list. Several Members took time off from taking time off in January to give their view on what can be done to make the flexibility journey easy and routine for households, businesses and communities. Members will get a list of possible updates to the steps in the coming days to reality check and to think about accountabilities, sequencing and timeframes for action. The plan is to have Flexibility Plan 2.0 settled and ready to provide a second assessment of progress in mid 2025. 3. Supporting learning-by-doing. FlexForum Members really want to see stuff happen and to support things which make that stuff happen. Just before Christmas we gave Members a heads up that we were working with EECA on a proposal for project involving real households and businesses doing flexy things. A bunch of work later, we are sorting out with EECA the final details of how FlexForum can support learning-by-doing through a scaled demand flexibility demonstration pilot project. We are particularly excited that this project should deliver most, if not all, the Flex Day ideas. The details will be available soon |
