Flexitricity’s managing director, Dr Alastair Martin wanted to to engage the services of a University partner to help our research and development.

Interface - The knowledge connection for business helped broker collaborative links with two academics from the University of Edinburgh’s School of Engineering and Electronics. Flexitricity was successfully awarded a two year Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) to explore the supply and demand balancing in the National Electricity System and has now employed a KTP Associate to fulfil the terms of the KTP agreement.
