Network-aware energy exchange

The world's first
network-aware
energy exchange.

Delivering flexible power at a fair price — by coordinating generators, suppliers, asset owners and grid constraints in real time. Not another supplier, aggregator, or trading screen. The missing coordination layer.

The coordination layer

Not another supplier, aggregator, or trading screen. The missing layer between them.

Wholesale markets price energy. Flexibility markets dispatch assets. Retail markets serve customers. Network operators manage physical constraints. Each layer exists — but none of them talk to each other in real time. Enleashed is the coordination intelligence that links them.

Wholesale

Price discovery at scale

Wholesale markets set the reference price. Enleashed ensures local flexibility decisions stay anchored to wholesale reality — without replacing wholesale.

Flexibility

Real-time dispatch coordination

Flexibility markets dispatch assets. Enleashed makes those assets network-aware: dispatch is constrained, priced and settled by what the grid can physically support.

Retail demand

Consumer assets as participants

Retail customers own batteries, EVs, heat pumps and solar. Enleashed gives them a route into flexibility markets without losing control of their assets.

Network

Physical grid as the constraint

Network constraints are the hard limit on what flexibility can actually deliver. Enleashed reads network state and uses it to bound price signals and dispatch decisions.

Who participates

Every flexible asset. Every market participant. One coordinated exchange.

Enleashed is built for all sides of the flexibility market — generators who supply it, consumers and asset owners who own the devices that can deliver it, and suppliers who need it to balance their portfolios and serve their customers.

The exchange

Six linked but distinct markets. All network-aware.

Enleashed keeps each market distinct — wholesale pricing stays wholesale, balancing stays balancing — but links them intelligently so that imbalance creates balancing requirements, renewable generation creates certificates, and network constraints shape every dispatch decision.

Wholesale

Forward and day-ahead power

Price discovery for generation and demand across half-hourly settlement periods. Network-aware allocation respects physical delivery constraints.

Intraday

Real-time position adjustment

Continuous market for flexible assets to update positions as conditions change. Network state informs scarcity signals and local price adjustments.

Balancing

Real-time system balancing

Dispatch of flexible assets to correct system imbalance. Auto-triggered from intraday exposure. Constrained by live network tightness.

Capacity

Assured future availability

Contracts for generators and flexible assets to commit future availability. Linked to network-level adequacy requirements rather than system-average demand alone.

CfD

Contracts for Difference

Wholesale price exposure automatically triggers CfD settlement logic for contracted generators. Settled against network-adjusted reference price.

Carbon · PPA

Renewable certificates and community power

Renewable generation creates carbon and renewable certificates. Community generation can be contracted through PPAs directly on-exchange.

Network-aware dispatch

Price signals bounded by what the grid can actually deliver.

Most flexibility markets ignore the physical grid. Enleashed reads network state at every level — from system operator to individual feeder — and uses it to infer scarcity, tightness and congestion. The result is a local price signal that reflects real physical conditions, not just bid-ask economics.

Dispatch is constrained by what the network can support. Settlement is evidence-based. Prices are fair because they are grounded in physical reality.

Network state updates continuously. Scarcity inference produces bounded local price signals that constrain and inform dispatch across all exchange markets.

Shaun Sweeney
“The flexibility market should not be built around taking control away from consumers or hiding network physics inside a black box. It should be built around a fair, transparent exchange where every participant — from a householder with a battery to a generator supplying gigawatts — can see why prices are what they are, and trust that they are grounded in physical reality.”
