Grid Edge Transactions and GDPR’s Right to Erasure

Flux Tailor, working with LO3 Energy, researched GDPR regulation right to erasure request (“Article 17”) precedents, and academic literature to consider data privacy regulation implications as they related to the energy usage data processed by LO3 Energy. Our goal was to learn whether 15 minute interval energy consumption data is considered “personal data”. We studied GDPR test and cases to discover when a deletion request for such data is submitted under GDPR Section 3, Article 17 Right to Erasure (“Right to be Forgotten”), then what data needs to be deleted, and what data may be retained?

3rd Parties and Beyond: Promoting Innovation Through Energy Data Sharing with “Nth Parties”

Flux Tailor collaborated with Mission:data on reviewing the policy and technology roadblocks hampering energy customer data sharing by the parties involved in providing innovative clean energy tools, packaging their findings in the white paper “3rd Parties and Beyond: Promoting Innovation Through Data Sharing with “Nth Parties””. Special focus was given to the inherent limitations of regulation and technology solutions intended to enable data sharing that only considers “third parties”, effectively ignoring that more than just a single third party is often involved in customer authorized energy data. The paper was sponsored by Mission:data member Amperon, which provides AI-powered electricity forecasts derived from high-resolution AMI data.
