Local Flexibility Programmes: Innovation and Sustainability for Power Grids
The new local flexibility programmes, such as RomeFlex and Edge, are experimental initiatives created to make the management of local power grids more efficient and sustainable, especially in urban contexts with high consumption density and, therefore, potential stress for distribution.
What Is Local Flexibility?
It is the ability to modulate consumption or production of electricity in response to grid requirements, e.g. by shifting consumption to times of lower demand or according to the operational needs of distribution companies. This type of service rewards end-users both for their willingness to participate and for the interventions that actually take place.
