The Evolving Electricity Market: What Investors Need to Know About Renewables, Balancing, and Grid Flexibility

The UK’s electricity market is undergoing significant structural changes. We’re seeing a clear trend: balancing actions are increasingly required to manage the system, and the share of negatively priced periods has tripled since 2022, signalling that inflexible supply is exceeding demand. This means storage, demand-side flexibility, and smarter networks are no longer optional – they’re foundational.

This shift presents investors with a compelling opportunity to back technology-driven solutions that provide rapid, flexible balancing and grid orchestration.
