 The energy system is undergoing rapid transformation driven by digitalisation, decarbonisation, and the proliferation of distributed resources. Regulatory frameworks, designed for a different system architecture, often constitute barriers to new technologies and business models before sufficient evidence exists to regulate them fully. Regulatory experimentation tools, of which sandboxes are the most widely used, offer a structured way to generate that evidence in real-world conditions while maintaining consumer and system protection. The energy system is undergoing rapid transformation driven by digitalisation, decarbonisation, and the proliferation of distributed resources.

 To keep pace with innovation, regulation needs to learn from experimentation. Sandboxes are one answer to this challenge. To keep pace with innovation, regulation needs to learn from experimentation. Sandboxes are one answer to this challenge.
