Today, the EU is facing multiple, overlapping challenges: increase the EU energy resilience, address skyrocketing energy prices and achieve the long-term climate neutrality objective. All of them must be achieved in an efficient way: the EU cannot afford to waste
Accelerating solar energy (solar PV and solar thermal) deployment in buildings, together with energy savings and demand-side flexibility activation, is critical to support consumer energy security for the upcoming winters and increase the resilience of the European energy system and

DNV was commissioned by smartEn to calculate the theoretical potential contribution that demand-side flexibility (DSF) can have on the gas demand reduction, used for electricity production, for years 2023 and 2025 in EU27, Switzerland, Norway and United Kingdom. The particular
Europe is going through its worst energy crisis since the 1970s. All levers must be activated to minimize its impact on European households and companies. We, the undersigned associations active in the e-mobility and wider energy ecosystem, believe that demand-side
As the European Commission stated in March 2020 with the EU industrial strategy, Europe must leverage the potential of the digital transformation, which is a key enabler for reaching the Green Deal objectives. The energy industry, represented by the Associations
Demand reduction and optimisation are at the heart of recent emergency interventions adopted by the EU. It requires a signal to which consumers can react. Hence, the Commission should refrain from suggesting market interventions and blunted price signals that undermine
The Core Reference Model (CRM) for DSO procurement of flexibility is intended as a blueprint of the ideal market design for flexibility procurement by DSOs. This paper is smartEn’s contribution to specifically address the DSO procurement of flexibility. In the
Empowering consumers to play a vital role in reducing gas demand by unleashing their demand-side flexibility is a cost-effective solution to the pressing energy emergency. Our homes, offices, hospitals, schools, vehicles and industries should be enabled to reduce their electricity
