Survey on Flexibility Market Implementation and Development

The increasing penetration of renewable energy sources, alongside growing policy support for decarbonization and decentralized energy systems, has heightened interest in local flexibility markets across Europe. Within the framework of the EU’s Clean Energy Package—particularly Directive (EU) 2019/944 and Regulation (EU) 2019/943—Distribution System Operators (DSOs) are encouraged to explore flexible

Case Studies of Data and Digitalisation as an Enabler for Energy Flexibility

This data and digitalisation case studies collection was prepared by the Energy Systems Catapult UK on behalf of the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ), UK, under the ISGAN Working Group 9 Task on Interoperability. Energy Systems Catapult acts as the UK Alternate Delegate for ISGAN and manages

Exploring the interaction between power system stakeholders: Insights from Pilot Projects – Discussion Paper

This discussion paper provides insights from global pilot projects on flexibility for coordinated capacity management by TSOs and DSOs. The discussion paper examines key challenges and lessons learned across technical, ICT, market, economic, and regulatory aspects. The study consolidates information gathered from literature reviews, stakeholder surveys, workshops, and expert interviews

Active System Management by DSOs – Discussion Paper

Discussion paper that provide insights into how DSOs can leverage active system management to cost-efficiently and securely manage their grids. These insights stem from a series of interactive workshops held with members of the ISGAN WG6 and other interested parties.

Exploring the interaction between power system stakeholders: Insights from Pilot Projects

The electricity system is transforming due to renewable energy integration, decentralized generation, and digitalization. The traditional unidirectional grid is evolving into a dynamic, bidirectional system with distributed energy resources (DERs) like solar, wind, EVs, and storage. This shift, along with electrification and decarbonization goals, requires enhanced coordination to maintain reliability
