Demand Response
Get paid to reduce energy usage during peak demand periods. A win for your bottom line and the grid.
Turn Energy Flexibility Into Revenue
Demand response programs reward businesses for reducing electricity consumption during periods of high grid demand. If your facility can temporarily curtail usage — even partially — you may be able to earn significant payments while helping maintain grid stability.
How Demand Response Works
When the power grid is stressed (typically during extreme weather or unexpected outages), grid operators need to quickly reduce demand. Demand response programs pay participating businesses to curtail their usage during these events.
Who Can Participate?
Demand response is typically best suited for facilities with:
- Flexible operations that can be temporarily reduced or shifted
- Backup generation capabilities
- Large HVAC or refrigeration loads
- Industrial processes with scheduling flexibility
