iFLEX Assistant mobile app

The iFLEX mobile app helps you manage your home energy consumption, energy flexibility and energy performance.

The user can monitor the household’s energy consumption and generation, if any, and schedule the operation of devices. In terms of energy flexibility, the user can see the history of participation in flexibility events which entail shifting the energy usage of certain devices to another time period. Points achieved for being flexible are also displayed. It is possible to choose when to receive notifications about events and to have the process of participation fully automated in accordance with the set preferences.

When it comes to energy performance, the app enables the user to receive advice on how to improve device operation and whether replacement could be beneficial. It is also possible to follow the status of set goals for minimisation of cost, energy and CO2 emissions.

The iFLEX mobile app is used by our Greek and Slovenian pilot participants. Check out some of the initial basic functions in the video, with the Greek pilot case as an illustrative example.

The functions and features are continually discussed and co-created on in collaboration with our pilot users in Greece and Slovenia.

Validating iFLEX flexibility management and energy optimisation

In the last phase of the project, the focus is on validating the iFLEX Assistant deployed in each pilot and on demonstrating the optimisation of the energy usage in the participating households and residential buildings, based on the activation of demand responseDemand Response Intentional change of normal consumption patterns by energy consumers in response to external price signals (implicit DR) or incentives to reduce or increase consumption (explicit DR). Both operations can be automated. events.

iFLEX at Enlit Europe 2022

Enlit Europe connects people who work towards the common goal: To deliver a clean, affordable and reliable energy for all. Find us in the European Projects Zone.

Two iFLEX papers accepted in IEEE SmartGridComm’22

The papers cover the analysis of the incentive mechanisms in the Slovenian and Greek pilots and have been produced by Athens University of Economics and Business – the Services, Technologies and Economics Group.

Testing the iFLEX concept

To investigate consumer acceptance of the iFLEX concept, the project has conducted a public survey in the three pilot countries. The results show a general positive attitude towards offering energy flexibility and using iFLEX to manage it, as long as it does not conflict with comfort and the feeling of being in control.

Join us at Sustainable Places 2022

iFLEX is co-organising a workshop on consumer-user engagement in the design of energy flexibility services. Join us on 8th September for some real-life experiences and exchange of knowledge and ideas.

What is happening in BRIDGE

Take a look at the recent conclusions and recommendations from the BRIDGE community on how to unlock energy flexibility in Europe.

Offering the thermal capacity of apartment buildings

The Finnish pilot investigates how apartment buildings can contribute to both power grid and district heating system balance by offering the thermal capacity of the building as a flexibility resource. The role of the iFLEX Assistant is to learn the behaviour of the building in order to forecast available flexibility and to automate the demand-response operations.

Managing electricity price signals

The Slovenian pilot looks at dynamic pricing as a means of adjusting electricity consumption behaviour, signalling to consumers and prosumers when it is best to consume energy. The role of the iFLEX Assistant is to make it easy for consumers and prosumers to manage their response to the price signals.
