two.2.4) Description of the procurement
The Authority is looking to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) as a means of procuring Flexibility Services.
The Authority aims to procure Flexibility Services from owners, operators or aggregators of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs), which can be generators, storage or demand assets. These services are needed in areas of the network which have capacity constraints at particular times or under certain circumstances. These areas are known as Constraint Managed Zones (CMZs).
With the rollout of low carbon technologies and the need to make the most of available network capacity, Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) like the Authority are preparing for significant growth in the use of Flexibility Services to help manage the network in a cost-effective way. The Authority has plans to increase the use of Flexibility Services to help avoid potential overload conditions. DER owners, operators or aggregators able to offer more than 50kW of flexible capacity may be able to provide Flexibility Services and benefit from availability and utilisation payments.
