About Mercury Consortium

Setting the global standard for consumer device interoperability Mercury is a collaborative, non-profit initiative bringing together manufacturers, utilities, regulators, and tech providers. Our mission is to develop and promote functional requirements for consumer energy devices – such as EVs, heat pumps, hot water storage systems, residential batteries, and smart thermostats – making them easier to use and to integrate into energy systems, demand-response programs and flexibility markets. Overcoming the interoperability challenge Low-carbon technologies are proliferating fast, with an estimated increase from 40 million devices today to 200-600 million by the end of the decade. Today, these devices are often designed to different standards, and so interact with the grid in different ways. This prevents customers and utilities from making the most of the benefits they have to offer, stifling innovation and blocking participation in mutually beneficial demand response programs, for example. Mercury aims to solve this interoperability challenge.
