Grid revenue: The CPO’s untapped asset
Listen to how operators can get paid for helping keep the grid in balance. We covered how it works from start to finish: the market rules, the trading side, the technical work of actually making charging assets available to the grid, and the business case for CPOs.
Join us as we explore
The commercial and technical orchestration behind grid revenue
Understand the different capabilities it takes to earn grid revenue: retail electricity and market access (including retailer roles and balancing structures), aggregation of flexible assets across a portfolio, and a Charge Point Management System (CPMS) that can reliably activate that flexibility when it’s needed.
How the European market is structured and the roles that matter
Learn who the players are across Europe: TSOs, FCR and aFRR, and the settlement concepts tied to BRP and BSP roles. The differences between EU markets are generally subtle, with the UK standing out as the notable exception.
How flexibility actually gets activated at the charger
See how it works in practice: forecasting how much flexibility will be available 24–48 hours ahead, bidding into capacity and availability markets, matching near real-time into activation and energy markets, and finally issuing commands to curtail or pause charging, based on the need. We also cover the charge point requirements that make this possible, from models and firmware to reaction timing and full end-to-end chain verification.
Why drivers won't be left confused or stranded
Operators often worry about driver experience and confusion. The webinar addresses why worst-case interruptions are actually limited, and how the right pricing and controls keep any negative impact to a minimum.
