The Energy Smart Appliances (ESAs) programme supports the aims of facilitating the uptake of safe, secure and interoperable ESAs, including electric vehicle (EV) chargepoints. It covers ESAs and Demand Side Response (DSR) and helps support the transition to a flexible and low CO2 energy system.
As part of the ESA programme, BSI has published a roadmap - Energy Smart Appliances standards programme – PAS 1878 and PAS 1879 development stage. The roadmap leads on from the current ESA programme, and feedback received from industry stakeholders to set out a follow-on programme of work to build upon the PASs and further enhance their impact on the market.
