This initiative, categorised under energy and related services, involves a funding opportunity of £2 million aimed at developing innovative solutions to automate the registration of small-scale energy assets. The tender period is set to conclude on 20 May 2022, with the contract anticipated to commence on 20 June 2022 and run until 20 December 2022. This process is part of the broader £65 million Flexibility Innovation Programme, delivered through a Small Business Research Initiative (SBRI). Interested participants can find more details on the application process via the provided government link. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) focused on technological innovation within the energy sector. Companies that specialise in the development of digital solutions for energy management, such as those working on data exchange, registration systems for energy assets, or the creation of centralised asset registers, would be particularly well-suited to compete. Engaging in this project could enhance their portfolio while contributing to the digitisation of the energy system. ## Notice This SBRI Competition aims to support the development of innovative solutions for an automated secure data exchange process for registering small-scale energy assets and collecting and accessing small-scale energy asset data. The Automatic Asset Registration (AAR) programme is a PS2m funding opportunity to develop innovative Solutions that will facilitate digitalisation of the energy system. AAR will fund the development of innovative Solutions to replace manual registration of small-scale demand, generation and storage assets (such as heat pumps, EV charge points, solar PV and in-home/SME batteries) as well as the development of a Central Asset Register ("CAR"), capable of collecting and sharing energy asset data, once successfully registered. This Competition forms part of the up to PS65m Flexibility Innovation Programme. AAR is specifically designed to help address the need for a digitised energy system. It will be delivered through a Small Business Research Initiative ("SBRI"), offering funding support to deliver a joined-up Solution to manual registration of small-scale energy assets.
