We explore Flower’s role as a Balance Responsible Party (BRP), how flexibility markets work, and why EV chargers and co-located batteries are perfectly positioned for monetization. 

My shares Flower’s rapid growth, insights from real projects like their work with Recharge, and what CPOs need to know to start participating in flexibility markets - without compromising the charging experience.
