ACER is consulting on a framework guideline for flexibility

The purpose of the framework guideline is to make it easier for consumers and prosumers to participate more actively in the power market. An ordinary consumer will, for example, be able to offer Statnett (the national TSO in Norway) or the local DSO to switch off EV charging or the water heater during constrained power situations and get paid for this service. In the long run, this will also contribute to a more efficient and stable operation of the power system.
