This total occurred across 529 distinct events when CPower\u2019s customers were called on to help the grid.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDemand response has proven itself time and again in extreme weather: this past summer we saw how customer-powered DERs can rescue the grid during record-breaking heatwaves across the country,\u201d said John Horton, President and CEO, CPower. \u201cCPower was established to help manage extreme peaks when the grid needs capacity the most, and with local energy from more than 17,000 commercial and industrial sites across the country, our customers are ready to provide critical support. While summer continues to be the peak demand season, leveraging DERs for grid defense is becoming even more essential during increasingly common Winter events.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In 2021, communities in Texas suffered during Winter Storm Uri as a lack of available energy resources led the state\u2019s grid operator, ERCOT, to order rolling blackouts. DERs were dispatched during the event, which saved the grid from outages that would have otherwise lasted weeks.<\/p>\n<p>The outlook for this Winter also predicts possible capacity shortfalls in various regions if extreme cold strikes, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.utilitydive.com\/news\/nerc-ercot-miso-iso-ne-winter-reliability-risks\/636440\/?utm_source=Sailthru&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=Issue:%202022-11-14%20Utility%20Dive%20Newsletter%20%5Bissue:45978%5D&amp;utm_term=Utility%20Dive\">according to the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC)<\/a>. With approximately 6.3 GW of DER capacity, more than any other player in the U.S., CPower offers customers <a href=\"https:\/\/cpowerenergy.com\/areas-we-serve\/\">solutions<\/a> to contribute to grid reliability.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to plan for the grid by assuming that this winter will be the coldest on record. Any market that requires energy resources should be turning to demand response now to make additional capacity available as needed,\u201d continued Horton. \u201cBusinesses\u2019 local energy assets offer a real solution for grid\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 challenges today and will become even more essential to enable a flexible, clean and dependable energy future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information on how commercial and industrial businesses can receive energy incentives for helping the grid, 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.
