Short-term demand-side flexibility is expected to play an essential role in balancing intermittent electricity … different price signals was collected and analysed. We find that households reduce their electricity demand by, on average, 2 …/kWh. Our results suggest that despite the limited potential of manually-performed demand response from households, it can be …
