Scaling Up Demand Flexibility
…initiative to examine the growing importance of demand flexibility in electricity systems amid rising demand, increased renewable energy integration and the electrification of power systems. Case studies in chronological order to examine the changing role of demand flexibility over time from South Africa (2025), Thailand (2030) and Ireland (2035) demonstrate how demand flexibility improves reliability, reduces costs, supports renewables integration and manages network constraints. To realise these benefits, the report emphasises the role for smart technologies, inclusive policies, regulatory reforms and consumer engagement to scale flexibility and move away from emergency interventions, towards a more strategic and efficient system capability.
