# USEF Flex Trading Protocol
|
||
|
||
The Universal Smart Energy Framework (USEF) has been developed to drive a fast, fair and lowest cost route to an integrated smart energy future.
|
||
By delivering one common standard, it enables cost-efficient connectivity of all smart energy projects and technologies.
|
||
Its market structure, roles, rules and tools for the commoditization and trading of flexible energy usage work with existing energy markets.
|
||
|
||
The USEF Flex Trading protocol (UFTP) is a subset of the USEF framework.
|
||
Focused specifically on the exchange of flexibility between Aggregators (AGRs) and DSOs, it describes the corresponding market interactions between them to resolve grid constraints by applying congestion management or grid-capacity management.
|
||
UFTP can be used as a stand-alone protocol for flexibility forecasting, offering, ordering, and settlement processes.
|
||
|
||
UFTP and the USEF Framework were originally developed, maintained and audited by the USEF Foundation.
|
||
In 2021, USEF moved to the Linux Foundation Energy, and the project is rebranded as ‘Shapeshifter – a universal flex trading protocol’.
