Energy Demand Response
CPower offers energy demand response programs that provide revenue opportunities for energy end-users. By enrolling in these programs, participants agree to reduce their electricity consumption in response to peak system demand, grid emergencies or peak wholesale prices, thereby contributing to grid stability and lower market prices.Demand response can be a powerful tool in a company's overall energy management strategy. By participating in energy demand response programs, companies can earn significant revenue while simultaneously reducing energy expenses through lower consumption. These strategies can help offset the rising costs of energy and improve a company's bottom line.
In addition, participation in energy demand response programs results in significant environmental benefits. By reducing the peak electric load on the grid, energy demand response participants help reduce the need for more power plants, lowering carbon dioxide and other emissions. At the same time, demand response participants reduce their own consumption of electricity and the associated carbon emissions.
CPower is committed to finding the program or programs that best suit each company's objectives. Energy demand response opportunities include:
- Capacity
Clients sign up in advance to be available to curtail their energy usage when electricity demand exceeds supply in their region. Participants typically earn revenue on a monthly basis or quarterly, regardless of whether or not a client is called upon to curtail their energy usage. - Price Response
Clients voluntarily curtail their energy usage upon notification by the grid operator that wholesale energy prices have exceeded their bid threshold.
