    BEIS will procure a six-month discovery study assessing technical feasibility and policy implications of the energy system ‘digital spine’ concept, as proposed in the Energy Digitalisation Taskforce report. An energy system digital spine is a proposed piece of digital infrastructure to connect energy system participants, enabling them to exchange data simply and securely. A common industry-wide digital spine solution could deliver the efficiencies of an interoperable, digital energy system, but the definition, scope, potential delivery options and overarching governance requirements are uncertain and wide-ranging. This study will include definition/scope options analysis, stakeholder engagement, security and operability implications, user journeys, and costs. This work sits within the Net Zero Innovation Portfolio’s £65m Flexibility Innovation Programme, which enables large-scale widespread electricity system flexibility through smart, flexible, secure, and accessible technologies and markets.  BEIS is holding a supplier engagement event on 8th September 13:00 – 14:00 for this opportunity, please use the link below to register for this event: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/energy-system-digital-spine-scoping-study-information-event-tickets-404052049557 Energy Digitalisation Taskforce report - https://es.catapult.org.uk/news/energy-digitalisation-taskforce-publishes-recommendations-for-a-digitalised-net-zero-energy-system/ £65m Flexibility Innovation Programme - https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/flexibility-innovation
