e-Tia
One of a kind.
Built on Plexigrid’s revolutionary HDR (holistic demand response) technology, e-TIA is the only demand response system in the market that allows aggregators, retailers and other energy players to address and capture 100% of the “flexibility value” along the full value chain (production-transmission-distribution-consumption) of any electricity system.
The market structures and regulatory frameworks for demand response, flexibility management, and aggregators are constantly evolving and changing. That is why, in Plexigrid, we decided early on to adopt a modular design approach where the different building blocks of our technology can be seamlessly assembled to address the specific needs of different market players for a specific market, regulation or business model. Our “modular” philosophy constitutes one of Plexigrid’s core competitive advantages, allowing us to offer customized solutions to our customers at minimum development costs and lead times by combining our standard building blocks.
In short, e-TIA’s modular design supports:
- All market players:consumers, producers, prosumers, energy communities, energy retailers, energy aggregators, DSOs and TSOs…
- All business models and aggregator types: from a simple “type 1” pool price optimization aggregator to the all-encompassing “type 4” or HDR aggregator model, and or/any combination of the aggregators.
NEMO. Nominated Electricity Market Operator.
TSO. Transmission System Operator.
DSO. Distribution Market Operator
* Addressing this flexibility value pool requires Plexigrid’s e-TIA technology.
Conventional aggregators and demand response systems do not have “Type4” capabilities, leaving over 50% of the flexibility value of their customers unaddressed.

For Energy Retailers
By adding e-TIA to their technology ecosystem, energy retailers can offer their customers maximum value for their flexibility through unique flex tariffs and products that monetize the customers’ full- flexibility in all “flex-markets” and with all “flex-counterparts”, including:
- Pool price optimization with NEMOs (Nominated Energy Market Operators).
- Participation in ancillary services markets with TSOs and DSOs.
- Enabling DSOs to embrace dynamic capacity allocation (DCA). By resolving network congestions and load peaks with DCA instead of resolving them with capacity upgrades, DSOs can save hundreds of millions of Euros in CAPEX. Plexigrid’s e-Tia technology is unique in its ability to address this value pool, which accounts for about 50% of the flexibility value in an electricity system. e-Tia enabled retailers can literally double the addressed flex value pool of their customers.

By adding Plexigrid’s e-Tia to their technology platforms retailers can maximize the flex-value of their customers by simultaneously monetizing their flexibility in energy markets, ancillary service markets and dynamic capacity allocation markets.
e-Tia
For Aggregators
By adding e-TIA to their platform, aggregators can double the amount of flex value they can address and optimize for their customers. Most aggregators’ functionalities include pool price optimization with NEMOs and standard ancillary services with DSOs/TSOs, but not DCA (dynamic capacity allocation), which accounts for about 50% of the total flex value of their customers. Plexigrid’s e-TIA technology allows aggregators to unleash this value pool.

E-Tia
For Prosumers, Battery Operators and Energy Communities.
Prosumers, Battery Operators and Energy Communities can optimize the full value of their flexibility throughout a “e-TIA enabled” aggregator or retailer, or directly by adding Plexigrid’s e-TIA to their operating platform. By doing so, they can address all flexibility value pools and double the total flexibility value when vs standard market solutions.
