In this episode, Shivam Malhotra speaks to Simon Ellis, Head of Short-Term Trading at EDF UK, about how one of Great Britain's largest energy portfolios is adapting to a rapidly changing electricity market. With more than 2GW of battery storage under management, Simon shares how EDF is using automation, machine learning and advanced trading strategies to optimise flexibility assets, respond to increasingly volatile market conditions, and help reduce costs for consumers. Together, we explore how recent heatwave-driven price spikes, evolving market rules and grid reforms are changing the way power is traded and balanced across Great Britain.
