Data centres · Flexible connections

Make a flexible grid connection workable.

GridPass helps data-centre teams assess flexible capacity, plan how the site can respond and build clear evidence of operation.

Physical integration and operator acceptance depend on each site and its agreements.

The problem

A flexible connection needs a site plan.

A connection limit can make more power available, but only if the operator can meet the agreed limits and show what happened.

01

Capacity has conditions

Flexible capacity can depend on the network operator, contract, location and time of use.

02

Assets must work together

Batteries, approved site loads and operator-owned opt-in workloads have different limits, response times and operating priorities.

03

Response needs evidence

A site needs reliable measurements and records to review its response with the network operator.

How it works

Start with measurements. Add control in stages.

Each step checks the site, its permissions and the evidence needed before moving to the next one.

01

Assess

Review the connection terms, site load profile and available flexible assets.

02

Observe

Compare site meter data with the expected response. Start read-only.

03

Plan

Define safe limits, operating priorities and a supervised test plan.

04

Pilot

If approved, test bounded control and produce an event report.

What you get

A clear technical path for your site.

The scope depends on the site data, connection terms, asset access and operator requirements.

  • ✓
    Duration-aware flexibility assessment

    Estimate how much flexibility the site can offer, for how long and under what limits.

  • ✓
    Site control design

    Map approved batteries and flexible loads to the connection limit and operating priorities.

  • ✓
    Supervised pilot plan

    Set out data access, safety checks, test stages and a route to local control.

  • ✓
    Event records

    Report the measured site response against each agreed event and limit.
