In this episode, we speak to Chris Bernkopf, CEO and founder of Podero, and Lucy Murley, flexibility expert at LCP Delta to discuss how flexibility in residential energy is becoming a hot topic as Europe electrifies transport and heat, and households increasingly adopt solar, batteries, heat pumps, and EV chargepoints. 

We discuss:

• How Podero’s software enables utilities to trade flexibility from residential assets and benefit both customers and the grid.
• The current state and growth of the residential flexibility market across different European countries and assets.
• Challenges utilities face in developing clear, simple value propositions for consumers while capturing the full value of flexibility.

What’s one thing you would like listeners to take away from this?

• The technology and platforms are ready, but the key to scaling residential flexibility lies in simple, easy-to-understand propositions and effective execution by utilities.
