Year one plug-in projects review

During year 1 of Project LEO, the Low Carbon Hub has worked with its 43 existing projects and 17 new projects to form a pipeline of ‘Plug-in Projects’ (PiP) for Project LEO.

This pipeline would:

1. Provide the range of Plug-in Projects required to complete fully automated flexibility service market1 trials by the end of Project LEO. 
2. Test the technical, commercial, and social viability of the Plug-in project exemplars in current market conditions. 
3. Inform policy and regulatory processes currently on-going, e.g., RIIO-2 and RIIO-ED2², to ensure that they support the development of a mass market of flexible assets (generation, storage, and demand-side reduction) at the grid edge.
