About

Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy awarded a contract to Chameleon Technology (UK) Limited, ENERGY SYSTEMS CATAPULT LIMITED, EDF ENERGY R&D UK CENTRE LIMITED, and SOLO ENERGY LIMITED for Phase 1 of the SBRI Alternative Energy Markets Innovation Programme.

The programme supported the design and demonstration of domestic demand side flexibility propositions—tariffs, products, and services—under alternative energy market scenarios of a future energy system.

It aimed to demonstrate the value that innovative domestic demand side response propositions may bring to both consumers and the system, and to contribute to the evidence base for growing the domestic flexibility market to inform future policy and regulatory decisions.

The programme is part of the Flexibility Innovation Programme, which seeks to enable electricity system flexibility through smart, flexible, secure, and accessible technologies and markets, and sits within the Net Zero Innovation Portfolio (NZIP).

The contract value was £1,870,039.8.
