How can we collect static and dynamic information of small-scale energy assets being deployed (e.g. EVs, domestic scale PV, storage etc) in order to use them meaningfully for system optimisation purposes?

Background

BEIS has committed to ending the UK’s contribution to global warming by achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Our work towards becoming a leader in green technologies and clean energy will drive economic growth, all whilst accelerating global climate action through strong international leadership.
