Flexibility that works while the charger works.

SmartFlex turns EV chargers and flexible energy assets into grid-balancing capacity, then routes value back to the people and businesses providing it.

The grid needs flexibility. Most assets are still too hard to use.

EVs, heat pumps, batteries and solar are changing demand patterns across Great Britain. The value exists, but the operational work is fragmented.

01

Local networks are constrained.

Distribution networks increasingly need demand to shift at the right time and in the right place.

02

Market operations are manual.

Regional portals, asset registration, bids, awards and settlement can leave teams doing repetitive admin.

03

One charger is rarely enough.

Individual assets are often too small on their own. Aggregation turns thousands of controllable loads into useful capacity.

One automation loop for the flexibility market.

SmartFlex is built to keep the whole workflow current, from asset enrolment to settlement evidence.

Register

Enrol eligible EV chargers and flexible assets, then maintain the data needed for metered units and market participation.

Monitor

Track constraint zones and flexibility opportunities across the portfolio so eligible value is not missed.

Bid

Support portfolio-level bid construction and submission workflows for operators and energy partners.

Settle

Reconcile awards, participation, reporting and settlement evidence so teams can see what happened and why.

Rewards without making the user think about the grid.

SmartFlex keeps the customer experience simple. Users connect their charger, SmartFlex does the market work, and eligible value is routed back through the right reward or settlement model.

Residential

emRewards

Drivers can earn Electric Miles in-app currency, redeemable against the EM rewards catalogue.

Commercial

Partner settlement

Partners keep the customer relationship and decide how earnings are distributed. Electric Miles takes an agreed share of eligible settlement.

Built for local DSO flexibility and national NESO balancing.

Two markets can now be stacked through the same orchestration layer. DSO signals support local grid constraints. NESO Demand Flexibility Service signals support the national balancing system.

V2G trading. Park the car, sell the battery.

SmartFlex extends to vehicle-to-grid: V2G-ready charging assets opt in to forecasting, dispatch evidence and settlement readiness, while driver limits and vehicle readiness stay protected.

01

Bidirectional charging.

Parked EVs export energy back to the grid inside agreed limits, turning idle batteries into tradeable V2G capacity.

02

Virtual Power Plant workflows.

Aggregated assets are bid across day-ahead and intraday trading horizons through the SmartFlex trading desk flow.

03

Driver opt-in protected.

Trading happens only inside agreed limits, protecting state-of-charge targets and vehicle readiness.
