Generate big savings by enabling new revenue opportunities with Demand Response (DR) programs. See which programs apply to your energy storage projects and how ETB makes them easy to model and optimize.
Demand Response
Demand Response (DR) programs pay energy users to reduce or shift energy during peak periods when there is a significant strain on the grid.
For battery-backed sites, this usually means discharging stored energy during specific high-value hours in exchange for capacity or performance-based payments.
It is meant to strategically balance the grid out and manage the supply and demand of electricity in real-time.
Demand response helps avoid potential power outages due to ove consumption, helps to stabilize the grid, and ensures that the grid remains reliable and efficient.
