Where we are now
1) London’s total energy has reduced by
- ver 20 per cent since 2000
2) Emissions have decreased by 32 per cent since 1990 3) Carbon intensity of UK electricity has reduced by over 60 per cent since 1990 4) Heat (natural gas) and transport (diesel/petrol) remain key challenges
SLIDE 4
What we need to do
1) Increase the number of buildings retrofjtued with energy effj ciency measures 2) Ofgset increases in London’s energy demand through energy effj ciency deployment and increasing use of smart technology 3) Decarbonising transport and increasing use of actj ve and public transport 4) Determine the UK’s low carbon heat pathway

What does the delivery of a smart energy system look like and what is energy system fmexibility?
What? Who?
- In this context, a smart energy system means:
- Integratjon of energy supply and demand
across buildings, transport, industry (etc.) with the ability to:
- exchange data and communicate with
all components of the system
- ptjmise system and asset operatjon
based on energy system and consumer needs in a coordinated way
- Incorporate fmexibility into the system
to achieve optjmal outcomes
- In this context, fmexibility means:
- The capability to modify electricity supply or
demand in response to variatjons in prices or external control signals to provide a service to the energy system. Generators Transmission and distributjon system

Benefjts of a Smart Energy System approach
HM Government and Ofgem, Smart Systems and Flexibility Plan
- “Smart energy is central to many
- ther changes in our energy system”
- “For consumers, smart energy
technologies and processes can deliver new services that give people more control over how they use energy, and help lower bills.”
- “For the energy system, greater
fmexibility will help deliver reliable power at lower cost.”
- “The UK could save £17-40 bn
across the electricity system from now to 2050 by deploying fmexibility technologies”
- These benefjts come from
avoided or deferred network reinforcements, avoided generatjon build, avoided curtailment of low carbon generatjon, and betuer
- peratjon of the system.
Carbon Trust and Imperial College
- “The UK is uniquely
placed to lead the world in a Smart Power
- Revolutjon. If we get
this right we could save consumers up to £8bn a year.”
- “A low-carbon power
system will require a high degree of system fmexibility.”
- “Flexibility could bring
electricity system costs down by £3-8 bn/year by 2030 and £16 bn/yr by 2050” Commituee on Climate Change, Net Zero Report, 2019 Natjonal Infrastructure Commission, Smart Power (2016)
