The launch of FlexTech Integration Initiative consultation

18.10.2019News

EirGrid and SONI launch FlexTech Integration Initiative consultation, supported by ESB Networks and NIE Networks. The aim of this consultation is to gain stakeholders’ perspectives on the key challenges industry faces and what they believe are the priorities for the future. From this, EirGrid and SONI, together with the System Operator Task Force (TSOs/DSOs), will assess feedback and identify actions to prioritise. These opportunities and challenges will have to be prioritised to provide what we believe will be the best outcomes for future power system operation, while considering the needs of our customers. Through collaboration we can better understand the key challenges of participants in the electricity sector that, if resolved, will bring considerable transformation in the further integration of renewables to meet Ireland and Northern Ireland’s needs.

We welcome feedback on the questions posed within this paper. Responses should be submitted toFlexTech@soni.ltd.uk or FlexTech@EirGrid.com before the 4th of November 2019.
