Flexitricity

Scottish based Martin Energy Ltd (MEL) was founded to develop new ways of balancing electricity supply and demand within the National networks without the need for regular and wasteful starts and partloading of fossil fuel power stations. Reducing this helps cut emissions directly and crucially helps enable the network/grid electricity system absorb larger amounts of electricity produced from renewables sources.

The core service is Flexitricity, a communications and control system which aggregates flexible processes on the demand side of the electricity business. Anything from standby generators to short term load reductions can be connected to Flexitricity and used to manage demand peaks or shortfalls in generation, far more efficiently than large power stations. Flexitricity runs as an operational service to a broad range of companies, organisations & institutions, providing them with a new source significant recurring revenue, while delivering environmental benefits & reduced operational burdens.
