Balancing the Grid: Unlocking Consumer Flexibility for a Greener Future

 

How can consumer flexibility help reduce grid strain and achieve environmental benefits without costly infrastructure expansions?

 
 

Challenge

Tibber faced increasing demands to manage growing energy consumption without expanding expensive grid infrastructure. They needed insights into how consumer flexibility, such as demand response and smart charging, could create balance in energy usage and support their sustainability objectives.

 
 

How We Collaborate

Together with Tibber, we developed a tailored sustainability tool using Terralight, our advanced modeling platform. By analyzing energy consumption patterns, carbon intensity, and electricity prices across markets like Norway, Germany, Sweden, and the Netherlands, we provided actionable insights for optimizing consumer behavior and reducing grid strain.

 

Electricity Price vs. Carbon Intensity in Scandinavia

This graph provides a dynamic comparison of electricity spot prices and carbon intensity across Scandinavian countries. By illustrating fluctuations over time, it emphasizes the correlation between economic and environmental factors, offering critical insights for sustainable energy strategies.

 

Our approach included

  • Data-Driven Insights: Hourly carbon intensity and electricity price analysis across peak and off-peak periods.

  • Behavioral Shifts: Simulations to encourage load-shifting during low-carbon-intensity periods.

  • Impact Visualization: Transparent metrics to showcase how flexible energy use aligns with sustainability goals.
