Two Ways Communications

Electric Power Energy Information

Load Control

Demand Response

·         A method of exercising greater control over entire electrical grid systems by using individual facilities’ ability to reduce usage when the grid is overly stressed

·         Methods

o   Permanent consumption reduction

o   Peak demand reduction

o   Load shifting

 

Demand Response Programs/Players [4]

·         Utilities companies

·         Independent Systems Operators (ISOs) that operate a regional transmission grid or power pool over one or more states. Their customers participate in demand response programs through members called Aggregators or Curtailment Service Providers (CSPs), who act as agents for the customers.

·         Third-party aggregators or CSPs that contract with utilities or ISOs. The world’s largest providers of commercial, institutional and industrial demand response are third-party aggregators. They work with many utility companies or ISOs, helping customers design demand response and energy efficiency programs.
