⚡ Carbon flexing can also be used to pool flex/carbon rewards for community benefit, e.g a hardship fund

More detail on the Trellick pilot and Energy Unlocked's wider 24/7 CFE modelling linked below. We'd love to hear feedback

Thanks for reading, live long and prosper!🖖

⚡Stop data centre demand blowing national carbon budgets
⚡Incentivise landlords/LAs to upgrade buildings and invest in smart #EV charging
⚡Bring flex benefits to excluded groups, e.g. heat-with-rent tenants
⚡Reward co-location of green generation with flexible demand now, ahead of market reforms 3/4

Hourly matching of renewable generation with flexible electricity demand i.e. 'carbon flexing', or '24/7 carbon-free energy' - offers valuable applications as we decarbonise:🌤️ 🔌 2/4

We were also v impressed with the ease and speed of French charging points, all mapped out on the KiaCharge app. Plus MUCH superior cheese toastie than would ever be found in a British service station! 🧀

Unpacking social, energy system, innovation and environmental co-benefits of energy demand reduction and flexibility with @EDRC_UK @louisesunderland.bsky.social it’s not just the heat pump it’s the building that delivers the value, UK must not fall further behind” 🏡 ⚡️
