Details
The Automatic Asset Registration (AAR) Programme provided an opportunity to develop innovative solutions that will facilitate digitalisation of the energy system. Up to £2 million was available.
The Programme funds the development of innovative solutions to replace manual registration of small-scale demand, generation and storage assets (such as heat pumps, EV charge points, solar PV and in-home/SME batteries) as well as the development of a Central Asset Register capable of collecting and sharing energy asset data, once successfully registered.
The Programme was made up of 3 Phases:
- Phase 1 – Feasibility studies
- Phase 2 and 3 – Development and testing
Background
This programme is part of the overarching Flexibility Innovation Programme (of up to £65 million) which seeks to enable large-scale widespread electricity system flexibility through smart, flexible, secure, and accessible technologies and markets.
The Flexibility Innovation Programme will fund innovation across a range of key smart energy applications, and sits within the £1 billion Net Zero Innovation Portfolio (NZIP).
