Electricity North West has called on stakeholders to help shape its first ever distribution flexibility procurement consultation.

The consultation aims to give stakeholders a voice in developing flexibility markets by seeking feedback on its process for signposting, procuring, dispatching and settling flexible services.

As part of the Distribution Flexibility Procurement Statement, the consultation will help to better understand customers’ views allowing the company to be more informed during future tendering rounds.

The consultation will remain open for eight weeks and is set to close on 30 September 2022.

“We are committed to helping our customers to decarbonise and help the North West to reach net zero carbon, and as flexibility plays a huge part in these plans, we want to ensure we capture our stakeholders’ feedback on how we can facilitate this and help to remove any barriers to entry into our flexibility markets,” said Lois Clark, DSO commercial lead at Electricity North West.

“Huge progress has been made in the last few years within this space, but with plenty of work still to do, we want to capture your thoughts on how we should shape these markets of the future to best suit everyone’s needs.”

In late 2021, the group announced it would expand its operations by launching a new Middlesbrough-based subsidiary, Electricity North East (Construction & Maintenance), to support its clients across Yorkshire, Teesside and Northumberland.

The subsidiary provides high and low voltage construction and maintenance services to companies that operate private high voltage electricity networks.

Electricity North West also joined the UN-backed Race to Zero campaign in August 2021 committing to reach net zero emissions by 2050 at the latest.
