Abstract

The report aims to explain the methodology behind the FlexTool. Section 2 presents an overview of the existing approaches for flexibility assessment, and of the value added of the FlexTool. Sections 3 and 4 give a high-level overview of the IRENA FlexTool and its different uses. In Sections 5 to 7 the methodology, input data and result of the tool are presented from a technical perspective. Finally, Section 8 offers key insights obtained from the first four countries where the FlexTool was applied.
