## Summary

The Business Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) is currently overseeing a public procurement process for the SBRI - Interoperable Demand Side Response Programme: Stream 3, focused on energy management systems within the energy and related services industry. The procurement is at the tender stage, with bids required to be submitted by 14:00 on 29 July 2022. This initiative is aimed at exploring how energy management systems can work in conjunction with energy smart appliances to enhance demand side response, with total funding of £150,000 available for projects, each receiving a maximum of £30,000. The contract period will commence on 30 January 2023 and conclude on 30 June 2023, based in the United Kingdom.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) focused on energy solutions, smart technology, and innovation in energy management. Businesses that specialise in developing interoperable systems or energy smart appliances would particularly benefit from competing in this space. Participation in this SBRI competition not only enables firms to access funding for feasibility studies but also encourages collaboration with other stakeholders through networking platforms, thereby fostering growth and innovation in the energy sector.

## Notice

This SBRI competition aims to support feasibility studies to improve and develop understanding of how energy management systems (EMS) can act together with energy smart appliances to deliver interoperable demand side response. The IDSR programme consists of three Streams of work, to support the innovation, design, and demonstration of interoperable demand side response (DSR) systems. This Small Business Research Initiative (SBRI) Competition forms Stream 3 of the Interoperable Demand-Side Response programme. Through a pre-commercial procurement SBRI competition, BEIS seeks to support feasibility studies to improve and develop understanding of how energy management systems (EMS) can act together with energy smart appliances to deliver interoperable demand side response. Total funding of PS150,000 is available for Stream 3 of the Interoperable Demand Side Response programme, with a maximum of PS30,000 per Project. We anticipate funding 5 projects under this Stream. You can find other interested stakeholders to collaborate with by signing up to our networking platform - https://flexibility-innovation-programme-collaboration.b2match.io/ Further information about the IDSR programme including the Competition Guidance Notes for all three IDSR programme Streams is available on the Competition website - https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/interoperable-demand-side-response-programme-apply-for-stream-3-opportunities. The IDSR programme is part of the up to PS65 million overarching Flexibility Innovation Programme which seeks to enable large-scale widespread electricity system flexibility through smart, flexible, secure, and accessible technologies and markets. The Flexibility Innovation Programme will fund innovation across a range of key smart energy applications and sits within the PS1 billion Net Zero Innovation Portfolio (NZIP).
