The role of demand side response in the journey to a net zero grid

Flexibility – and specifically ‘demand side response’ (DSR) – is key to supporting the National Grid in balancing power supply and demand in a cost-effective way. It’s also a crucial element in enabling a net zero future.

Our new paper, UK demand side response: The importance of flexibility and what’s next on the journey to a net zero grid, explores flexibility and the types of DSR. It also looks towards the future with a view from our experts.

The National Grid Electricity System Operator (NGESO) has announced that it’ll continue – and expand – its Demand Flexibility Service (DFS). This recent news is further evidence that flexibility’s importance is growing.

Our paper examines various forms of flexibility and the impact they can have on our energy system. It provides insights into what the future holds as we continue on the journey to a more resilient and sustainable grid. And it offers valuable perspectives on the evolving landscape of DSR and its role on the path to net zero.
