The market is complex. Policy is slow. Trust is low.

A dual-sided sandbox for the UK's DER transition.

Anonymised compute gates influence, so the test stays neutral. Policymakers see who pays under scarcity. Market players see who earns fairly for the risk they take on new DER products — and assets.

The DER transition layer — for the UK's regulatory, political and economic complexity.

Why now

annual UK constraint & balancing cost — the price of getting coordination wrong.

NESO / Ofgem · baselines.gb_renewable_curtailment_cost_gbp

distributed flexible assets by 2030 — arriving whether the system is ready or not.

DESNZ / NESO projections

places that test policy and products together against real network state. That's the gap.

Enleashed thesis

One engine, two sides

one engine

Regulators & operators

Test policy before you mandate it.

Model a fairness rule, a scarcity-pricing change, a curtailment regime — and watch who pays, who's curtailed, and whether it stays fair over time, against the real system in shadow mode.

Lens: who pays under scarcity?

Market players

Test products before you launch them.

Backtest a tariff or flexibility product on anonymised data — , not 1–2 live trials a year. Answer "should we launch this?" before a single customer is enrolled.

Lens: does it pay, and is it fair?

How it works

One engine reads physical network state. The overlays let either side iterate on anonymised compute — without touching the live system.

Enleashed engine

the coordination model, run in real-time parallel shadow mode — never controlling the grid

Policy

fairness rules, scarcity pricing, curtailment regimes — as testable parameters

Analytics

who pays, who's curtailed, fairness over time, value by participant

Domain & permission

role-scoped access; each party sees only what it's entitled to

Data

anonymised pipelines — free iteration, no customer consent required

Network-aware at every level: System → Transmission → GSP/Primary → Secondary → Feeder → Device

An additive coordination layer — it consumes network signals, it does not replace the operator or dispatch assets. Everything runs in shadow mode beside reality until it's proven.

An EV-tariff customer is better off vs a standard variable tariff — proven across design configs in one session.

Coordination result

Curtailment cut by at zero thermal violations in the published coordination model — the system-level prize.
