Description
Could you generate additional power or reduce your consumption of power – and receive payment in return?
As the region’s distribution network operator, it’s our responsibility to plan for the future and seek out smarter, more flexible solutions to meet future demand for electricity.
We are utilising a number of innovative techniques to ensure we can continue to deliver an affordable, reliable and sustainable electricity supply for all our customers.
Flexible services is one such technique.
Distributed energy providers who can adjust how much electricity they consume or generate can support our distribution network at times of high demand, and receive payment in return.
We are looking for expressions of interest from companies who can generate additional power or reduce their consumption of power in seven key locations.
This webinar will provide more information on Electricity North West's flexible services and provide an opportunity for participants to ask questions direct to the project team.

Electricity North West owns, operates and maintains the North West’s electricity distribution network, connecting 2.4 million properties, and more than 5 million people in the region to the National Grid.
Our network covers a diverse range of terrain, from isolated farms in rural areas such as Cumbria, to areas of heavy industry and urban populations including Manchester.
Part of our role as network operator is to plan for the future. To meet government carbon reduction targets we need to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels like gas and petrol and change to renewable sources. As a result the demand for electricity in the UK is expected to increase dramatically by 2050.
As well as meeting additional demand as we start to use more electric heat pumps and electric vehicles we also need to adapt so that low carbon generation sources such as wind and solar power can connect directly to our network.
