Short-term (D-1) stability market

In 2021 we launched the Stability Market Design innovation project to explore the design for the enduring stability market.  

This project has recently concluded and AFRY summarised their recommendations in an end of project webinar on 17 July 2023 (slides and recording available on the stability market design webpages).

As a result of this work, in our 2023 Markets Roadmap we set out the aim to procure stability services across several timescales: 

• Long-term (Y-4)
• Mid-term (Y-1) 
• Short-term (D-1) 

We are currently exploring assessing the potential for a Short Term Stability Market and will shortly update this page with our latest thoughts.
