The program seeks to allow CAISO to add reliable demand response resources to areas of California where electric reliability may be at risk. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Launched in 2015 and now in its third year, the DRAM is a pay-as-bid pilot in which California\u2019s investor-owned utilities (IOUs) seek monthly demand response system capacity, local capacity, and flexible capacity for January to December.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A leading curtailment service provider (CSP) in California, CPower has played a significant role in helping DRAM\u2019s capacity volume triple from its first delivery year in 2016 to its third in 2018. The 2018 and 2019 delivery years of the program come as the popular Aggregator Managed Portfolio utility-based demand response program ends in October 2017. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cCPower is excited to have this opportunity to help expand the emerging DRAM program,\u201d Chamberlin added. \u201cBy working with SCE to bring reliable demand response resources directly into the CAISO market, we can help California achieve the goal of a reliable, clean energy future.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To learn more about CPower and the DRAM program, please visit <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cpowerenergy.com\/dram-california\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CPowerEnergy.com\/dram-california<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>About CPower:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CPower is a demand-side energy management company.
