Regulatory frameworks and market integration for assets under non-firm grid connection

As part of the energy sector’s evolution towards decarbonisation, there has been an increased focus on integrat-ing new energy resources, including renewable generation and storage, into existing power grids. Whereas tradi-tional firm grid connections can be long and expensive processes, non-firm connection, allowing assets to con-nect without guaranteeing full-time access but still participate in electricity markets, often offers a more flexible and cost-effective alternative.
