FlexSplice Edge: Connect, Control and Monetise Energy Flexibility

FlexSplice Edge helps flexibility suppliers connect, control and monetise distributed energy through a secure cloud-based virtual end node.

Making Flexibility Visible and Valuable

FlexSplice Edge is Cortexo’s openADR 2.0b certified Virtual End Node (VEN) solution that enables flexibility suppliers and aggregators to connect, control and monetise distributed energy resources with ease.

FlexSplice Edge will shortly be expanded to include the IEEE2030.5 CSIP-AUS standard widening the range of services available to electricity distribution or transmission operators.

Developed for New Zealand’s modern electricity networks, FlexSplice Edge creates a single, secure connection between flexibility suppliers such as building or campus energy managers and flexibility users such as electricity distribution or transmission operators.

It transforms how flexibility is managed, allowing energy data to move seamlessly between those who produce flexibility and those who need it most.

What FlexSplice Edge Does

FlexSplice Edge serves as the digital bridge between flexibility owners and energy network operators.

Through a secure cloud environment, it enables suppliers to:

  • Combine energy flexibility from multiple assets and sites
  • Respond to grid and market signals in real time
  • Generate performance and compliance reports automatically
  • Access live data through a simple dashboard or API connection

With one connection point, FlexSplice Edge removes technical barriers and provides complete visibility across a supplier’s flexibility portfolio.

Who It Is For

FlexSplice Edge is designed for flexibility suppliers and aggregators, including:

  • Building and campus energy managers with controllable loads or generation
  • Aggregators managing large fleets of flexible assets
  • Renewable and storage operators seeking access to flexibility markets or demand response programmes

These users can connect once and interact securely with multiple Electricity Distribution Businesses (EDBs) or Transpower, reducing time, cost and system complexity.

Key Features Description
Secure Cloud Platform Hosted and maintained by Cortexo with advanced encryption and high reliability.
Unified Access Connects multiple flexibility assets through one VEN connection.
Real Time Visibility Monitor flexibility events and asset performance in a single dashboard.
Full API Integration Enables data exchange with existing energy management or SCADA systems.
Comprehensive Reporting Tracks performance for compliance and financial verification.

Why Flexibility Matters

As New Zealand’s energy system moves toward a cleaner and more distributed future, flexibility is the key to balancing supply and demand.

By connecting distributed energy resources and grid operators in real time, FlexSplice Edge helps to:

  • Reduce strain on networks and avoid costly infrastructure upgrades
  • Increase the use of renewable generation when it is most available
  • Create new value streams for flexibility providers and asset owners
