Demand response pays energy users to reduce energy load during peak usage. CPower already manages more than 5.3 GW distributed energy resource (DER) capacity across the U.S., connecting the assets of nearly 2,000 customers at more than 12,000 sites by forming virtual power plants that meet the grid\u2019s real-time supply needs.<\/p>\n<p>Expanding upon its offerings in <a href=\"https:\/\/cpowerenergy.com\/california-energy-market\/\">California<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/cpowerenergy.com\/new-england-energy-market\/\">New England<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/cpowerenergy.com\/texas-energy-market\/\">Texas<\/a>, the new demand response solutions announced by CPower today include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Demand Response Auction Mechanism (DRAM) for Pacific Gas &amp; Electric Customers:<\/strong> Commercial and industrial (C&amp;I) organizations who want to manage event frequency will be provided a day-ahead notification to participate in the DRAM program.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Resource Adequacy (RA) for Southern California Edison Customers: <\/strong>With day-ahead notifications, C&amp;I customers can receive premium pricing and take advantage of the customer-focused program design.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Demand Response Initiative (DRI) in Maine: <\/strong>DRI is available to municipal, higher education, healthcare, manufacturing, and commercial real estate industries with interval meters. DRI provides a day-ahead notice with 3-6 calls per season, typically from 4 pm until 7 pm ET.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Non-Spinning Reserves in ERCOT: <\/strong>Available to C&amp;I organizations that are currently connected to the system and can curtail load within 30-minutes of a test\/event notification. Unlike other solutions, there is no under-frequency relay requirement, meaning their organization\u2019s power cannot be completely shut off. As one of the most profitable programs offered, it is also one of the most flexible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cAs operators around the country experience capacity shortfalls, distributed energy resources can fill that gap by tapping the embedded capacity within the grid,\u201d said Glenn Bogarde, senior vice president \u2013 Sales, CPower. \u201cWe remain committed to providing solutions that provide a win-win situation for our customers on both sides of the energy value chain: compensating the energy users for the value of the flexibility, while feeding the capacity of those resources back to the grid to keep it balanced. We work hard to bring our customers choice and our ability to offer multiple solutions within a single energy market means we can ensure maximum participation, and therefore, reliability.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Working with grid operators and utilities across the country, CPower offers 59 local energy solutions to deliver power to the grid when it is needed most. The company also recently announced its expansion across Illinois and MISO with a <a href=\"https:\/\/cpowerenergy.com\/who-we-are\/newsandhappenings\/cpower-expands-demand-response-program-throughout-illinois\/\">new demand response solution for Ameren Illinois<\/a> customers.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on CPower\u2019s new demand response solutions, visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/cpowerenergy.com\/contact\/\">https:\/\/cpowerenergy.com\/contact\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>About CPower Energy Management<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>CPower Energy Management is the leading, national energy solutions provider guiding customers towards a clean and dependable energy future.
