The mission of the Open Flex Alliance is to come to an open European model for unlocking the Energy Flexibility of heatpumps. With millions of devices expected to be installed the coming years, heatpumps present both challenges and chances for the energy transition, both all-electric as hybrid heatpumps. Our mission is to unite the heatpump industry and energy system stakeholders to come to an open international model for unlocking the Energy Flexibility of heatpumps, in such a way that manufacturers can market their own strategies and exceptional qualities to the full advantage of their customers, whilst offering energy system innovators a clear and cost effective way to use many heatpumps in the smartest ways.

The Open Flex Alliance is an initiative from Flexiblepower Alliance Network and TKI Urban Energy. The Alliance addresses both hardware and connectivity as software, controls and cloud connection. This presentation will show the results of our work to this day.
