⚡️Bunmi Adefajo showcases the latest updates to our whole-system modelling through ESME and the ESME Flex tool – strengthening confidence in how a flexible, resilient future energy system can operate.

🚛 Lowri Williams talks eFREIGHT 2030 – our major programme accelerating zero-emission HGVs. With four new reports and two open-access tools on the way, she invites fleets, manufacturers and infrastructure providers to follow along as we help unlock the business models and insights needed.

🚗 Fred Payne and Will Bonnell dive into the government’s proposed 3p-per-mile EV tax, using our ESME Transport model to explore what it means for EV uptake, the future of fuel duty revenue and the UK’s carbon targets.

Here’s what excites us:

📍 Local energy front and centre
💡 Support for new markets and tech
📈 A pathway to turn clean innovation into real economic growth

And those differences can reshape entire deployment plans.

Through eFREIGHT 2030, we saw how connection challenges, data uncertainty and land decisions can slow progress, or accelerate it when handled well.

This resource is built to help exactly that.

Download the report and register for our upcoming webinar here, where Grant will introduce you to the report and share his thoughts on how we need to think about flexibility: www.esnexus.org.uk/news/flexibi...

Inside, you’ll find:

🔎 Clear definitions of key flexibility concepts
💡 Everyday explanations (no jargon overload)
📍 A map of how flexible technologies interact across the system

As Grant Tuff, Consultant Engineer, puts it: productive collaboration starts with common understanding.

Think of it as a foundation the whole sector can build on: a clear, shared reference that makes it easier to design, deploy and scale a low-cost, resilient energy system.

That’s why the Energy Systems Nexus has released the Flexibility Taxonomy, its first collaborative piece of R&D, funded by UK National Nuclear Laboratory and E.ON through the Flex Mix project.

Whether you have an hour, a few days or weeks, students can build unique projects, solve real-world problems, and earn certificates and virtual badges.
