Open Energy Transition has shared the good news today about that we are supporting the European Union Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER) in building an open-source PyPSA-based platform for EU-wide flexibility assessment. You can find the post on LinkedIn.
All the Best,

If you aren’t on LinkedIn, I’ll share the post here:
Happy to collaborate with the EU Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER) on developing a tool for flexibility assessments.
Since December 2024, we have been working to support EU-wide flexibility assessments, aligning with the Electricity Market Design (EMD) reforms (Regulation (EU) 2024/1747), under which ACER is tasked with conducting these assessments regularly. The goal is to explore how to adapt to the variability of generation and consumption patterns, as well as grid availability.
We are building the assessment platform on top of the open-source PyPSA framework, ensuring the solution is accessible, adaptable, and collaborative—in line with the evolving needs of regulators, system operators, and policymakers.
This project is a step towards a more flexible and resilient energy market in Europe.
