Call for evidence description

This call for evidence builds on the October 2023 Capacity Market Phase 2 Call for Evidence and engagement that followed. We are seeking views and evidence from stakeholders on a range of topics relating to consumer-led flexibility, delivered via Demand Side Response (DSR) mechanisms in the Capacity Market, such as:

Generating Technology Classes for DSR technologies
new de-rating factors for those technologies
management of aggregated DSR portfolios
improving Baselining Methodologies
introducing completion milestones for new DSR entering the CM

This call for evidence may be of interest to:

Capacity Market Participants
energy suppliers and DSR providers
trade bodies
consumer groups
Capacity Market delivery partners

This call for evidence is being published alongside a consultation which presents proposals to modernise Capacity Market Rules and improve participation and delivery assurance of consumer-led flexibility.

We encourage respondents to review both the consultation and the call for evidence in tandem, and respond to both using the online response form.
