Electralink has launched a new platform which provides the energy market with access to a single catalogue of products, services and solutions.

The company says its energy market data hub (EMDH) provides a platform for both new and existing market participants, enabling them to develop their own products and services.

Services available on the EMDH include data transfer solutions such as the data transfer service (DTS) and other solutions which support the flow of information across the utility sector.

Electralink’s chief executive, Stuart Lacey, said: “Electralink has been at the forefront of providing data transparency since 2012 and the launch of the EMDH is an important milestone.

“The EMDH expands our service offering to both existing and new energy market participants as they grapple with the challenges of energy transformation.

“This transformation is happening now, and the data transparency provided by the EMDH will promote innovation and investment in the energy market for the benefit of consumers.”

The announcement coincides with the signing of a new contract with an IT service provider to re-platform the DTS.

This re-platforming will allow Electralink to “leverage the benefits of the public cloud and adopt an agile approach to development”. Furthermore it will also enable the company to deploy the connectivity required for energy market participants to interact with the central switching service.
