Short Description: SUPERGEN – Flexnet
FlexNet aims to build on the work of FutureNet by investigating the major technical, economic, policy and social developments that need to happen to make flexible networks a reality. Thorough analysis is combined with illustrations of specific outputs where possible, so that ideas can be taken up and implemented by the commercial sector, government and regulators.

- Markets and Investment: Exploring the market design, investment incentives and policy changes necessary for companies to create a flexible energy system
- Customers, Citizens and Loads: Analysing the potential, barriers and public acceptance issues surrounding greater contributions by customers to a more flexible energy system. A book entitled The Future of Electricity Demand: Customers, Citizens and Loads (edited by T.Jamasb and M.Pollitt) will be published in 2011 by CUP
