On 7th October 2020, Piclo held our second e-conference “DSO flexibility markets - the development across Europe and the role of Active Network Management”, read our latest poll insights.

The start of RIIO-ED2 in 2023 will see a new era of incentives, expectations and demands on the distribution networks. Now set against the backdrop of net zero, the next set of price controls are an important turning point for flexibility markets.

Piclo has secured its first international collaboration with the Slovenian electricity transmission system operator (TSO), ELES, on behalf of the Green Transformation Consortium, a group of Slovenian energy companies with a shared goal for accelerating Slovenian decarbonisation.

Piclo was pleased to bring together a group of flexibility industry experts to discuss the DSO flexibility strategies being implemented across the UK and Europe. In this interactive session we heard from System Operators, Flex Providers and the government, and of course Piclo on their experience of initiating DSO flexibility markets in the UK and how they’re staying ahead of the curve by turning innovation trials into business-as-usual tools.

Piclo secures £562k of funding from the Department of Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) to launch the world’s most ambitious flexibility market trial.
