Simon Brooke, Head of Distribution System Operator transition commented on the tender: “The use of industry agreed terminology for flexibility services is to help facilitate participation through the transparency and simplification of information available.
“This early adoption shows our commitment to remove barriers to entry into this nascent market and to encourage participation as much as possible.”
