ElectraLink’s Energy Market Data Hub (EMDH) currently supports all the processes of the #UK retail energy market. This enables us to deliver data-driven energy networks innovation in support of the mass adoption of #electricvehicles. ElectraLink operates at the heart of the UK energy market, delivering the regulated EMDH to provide innovative, dual fuel governance and data solutions. ElectraLink is the bridge that underpins the transformation of the utility markets and is enabling a data-driven transition towards a smarter, more flexible energy system. We collect and analyse over a billion messages exchanged between the 270 energy market participants on our EMDH and provide energy market insights to improve market efficiency and facilitate innovation. We can use energy data from the EMDH to help locate electric vehicles at a domestic street level. The Low Carbon Technology Detection project, led by ElectraLink for Western Power Distribution (WPD), and supported by #IBM, found 15,000 previously unknown households with electric vehicles and solar panels on WPD’s network, which is 13% more than was previously thought. Projects like this, supported by data solutions such as NetGen – our Low Carbon Technologies generation dataset, will give distribution network operators greater knowledge of where #electriccars are charging and enable them to plan for increasing demand on the electricity #grid as electric vehicle uptake increases. With collaboration, innovation and loads of data, we are already supporting the move towards a smarter, more flexible energy system. Electric vehicles afford great opportunities to this new energy world, as smart charging and vehicle-to-grid emerge as key enablers of flexibility and smarter grid management. Data will underpin all of this.

“Our tests with a test group of around 450 households have shown that the CKW Energy Tracker saves 3 – 5% of electricity within a few weeks and around 8% on average after a few months, compared to the control group." Thomas Reithofer, Head of the Energy Division at CKW 💚 CKW has joined the Eliq friend group and we are so proud to be working with this leading Swiss provider of integrated energy. “Now more than ever, consumers need to be in control over how energy is used and distributed in their homes. It’s great to be working with innovative companies like CKW who actively want to help their customers through the energy transition.” Yes, Will Ephraim - #innovation is key for the #energytransition.

From a sustainability perspective it is great to see this. Congrats #nokia It does occur to me though, that given most power consumption in a #5G Mobile Network occurs in the base station, the benefits would really accrue to the Tower companies. By becoming a VPP. and building utility grade wind and solar farms combined with tower site assets as described below, Tower companies can stabilize and optimize energy costs and as it switches from variable fossil fuel cost to renewables capex. Structured as a REIT they are well positioned to raise the capital and with a recurring return.

The Clean Energy Package (CEP) in Europe, and similar initiatives around the globe, are driving the smart energy transition forward. Accompanying this transition is a significant change in the role of smart meters in the DSO’s business case. It is a little strange to think of “old views” and “new views” for the smart meter business case, but the reality is that the concept has been around, practical and deployed for over a decade. However, there has been a transition in the role of the smart meter. The CEP is a major element of this change as it formalises the role of the smart meter in the heart of the smart energy transition. Through alignment with the concepts of the CEP, a DSO can leverage its investment in smart meters and generate more business value. https://lnkd.in/gKJ7b222

“Grid modernisation plays a crucial role in ASEAN’s sustainable and low carbon energy transition", stated by Kyle Stromberg of G&W Electric Co. Utilizing data is imperative for maintaining grid reliability and resiliency, especially with initiatives like distributed energy resources (DERs) and increased energy efficiency. Grid modernization, coupled with renewable energy integration, is essential for ASEAN's sustainable and low-carbon energy transition.

Last month, a report by the Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC) recommended that the deployment of smart meters across the National Electricity Market (excluding Victoria) should be accelerated so we achieve 100 per cent uptake among small customers by 2030. The AEMC argues that achieving a critical mass of smart meter deployment in a far timelier manner will deliver greater benefits for customers and support the wider decarbonisation of the energy market. But what are the hurdles that will need to be cleared on the way to the finish line? Braeden K. takes a look: https://lnkd.in/gSD2GBuy #smartmeters #NEM
