Bumping this.
Been looking around to catchup on seeing if any news on saving sessions and no. But its not sounding as good from the DFS point of view.
I knew they were proposing to make the demand flexibility a full year thing rather than winter, but it seems they think, or seem to think they need us less.
ESO sets out its intention to evolve DFS into a commercial service

"Following confirmation in the ESO’s early view of winter that the de-rated margin – (the excess generation the ESO expects to be able to call on at peak demand in a cold spell) - is expected to be higher than last year (5.6 GW / 9.4% for winter 2024/25 compared to 4.4 GW / 7.4% last winter), the requirement for DFS to be used as a winter contingency service to support the electricity network at peak times has been reduced."
This is the latest
The Demand Flexibility Service (DFS) was introduced in winter (22/23) to access additional flexibility typically over winter peak days when national demand is at its highest.

"We submitted our final DFS proposals to Ofgem for approval on 24 September."
Says expecting ofgem review in Sept/Oct with Nov go live.
Cross you fingers fellas
