In a world with renewable energy, flexibility is crucial and valuable. Planning ahead allows flexible assets to serve the whole system with their flexibility, e.g. by shifting or curtailing energy use. This can also be profitable for their owners.
The FlexMeasures Platform is a tool for scheduling flexibility activations for energy assets. For this purpose, it performs three services:
- Monitoring of incoming measurements
- Forecasting of expected measurements
- Scheduling flexibility activations with custom optimisation

FlexMeasures is compliant with the Universal Smart Energy Framework (USEF). Therefore, this documentation uses USEF terminology, e.g. for role definitions. The intended users of FlexMeasures are a Supplier (energy company) and its Prosumers (asset owners who have energy contracts with that Supplier). The platform operator of FlexMeasures can be an Aggregator.
