Happy Friday #energytwitter. We've got 4 exciting job openings in the @NationalGridESO flexibility market strategy team, so if you want to play a pivotal role in shaping our future flexibility markets, take a look below👇

🏠 We're in a new era of consumer-led flexibility: customers can choose to use energy at different times and be rewarded for helping the grid

⚡️ Amazing to see this @NationalGridESO trial giving valuable real-world data. We will learn, improve and scale

🧪 Some early insights👇

📣 NEW ANALYSIS: Insights from the UK’s largest Consumer Energy Flexibility Trial

Check out our key findings from @NationalGridESO #DemandFlexibilityService. We look at the impact of price, comms, weather + household type on engagement

Introducing ⚡️GB Renewables Map⚡️ – my latest (personal) energy experiment

Play with a map showing live generation for major wind farms in Great Britain, showing what each farm is generating and where that generation is physically located.

More soon! 👀

@supergoodlife I agree the future is exciting - EVs, HPs and batteries can use automation to respond to grid signals (or prices) intraday, not just day-ahead like DFS.

Worth nothing that DFS shows that (manual) domestic flexibility is v. valuable and ready now for all customers who want it!

👀 Excited for the #DemandFlexibilityService later today

📈 My app is showing we are meeting over 90% of the ESO requirement as an industry!

⚡️ with ~230MWh procured, that's the equivalent energy usage of all the homes in Manchester combined that we are turning down!

[ryan jenkinson 🌱🌍 @ryancjenkinson]

@_Project_LEO Thanks for sharing!

Project LEO is an extremely important and timely project as we reimagine what future energy places can look like 🏡

[ryan jenkinson 🌱🌍 @ryancjenkinson]

@naomibbaker @naomibbaker that's fine by me!

We noticed some scaling problems yesterday and the app was down intermittently.

Going to work on optimising it a bit more this weekend, so maybe just mention it's still an early tool being worked on.

Thanks for spreading it round!

[ryan jenkinson 🌱🌍 @ryancjenkinson]

@a_Damien_Kelly @james_h_kerr @naomibbaker @robhawkes @guynewey @JonathanWaxman1 @GuyLipman +1 to more data about the DFS being released! The settled volume data is only provided at an event level, rather than a provider level at the moment @a_Damien_Kelly

I agree it would be interesting to differentiate domestic from non-domestic, perhaps using provider name / "unit"

[ryan jenkinson 🌱🌍 @ryancjenkinson]

@naomibbaker @james_h_kerr Yes that makes sense, will bear this in mind when I make some modifications to the app over the weekend. The event isnt tagged as "onboarding" on the data portal, but some additional filters to the data may be useful here.

[ryan jenkinson 🌱🌍 @ryancjenkinson]

@james_h_kerr @naomibbaker Agreed on this! The last DFS was quite a bit smaller, but still marked as a TEST event in the data. One quick way would be to only show events with greater than 10 providers (for example).

Agree it would be a good feature though - thanks for the feedback!

🤝 Excited to see what others think of this tool, and how it can be iterated on in the coming weeks and months. Feedback welcome!

⏭️ More improvements and features coming soon :)
