The GOFLEX concept named FlexOffer is a general format for capturing demand/supply flexibility of loads in time, energy amount, and price, and associated constraints, e.g., in power. An FlexOffer Manager (FMAN) tool was developed for aggregating, dis-aggregating, performing delegated trading is able to manage large amounts of FlexOffers, and optimize the portfolio with a number of objectives.
