This white paper highlights critical insights for utilities into the implementation of future customer-focused DR programs, given the rapidly changing and distributed energy grid. Utilities with existing DR programs that are either underperforming or otherwise failing to yield desired results may look to the considerations and case studies to strengthen their existing DR portfolio and meet customer needs.

One of the Reforming Energy Vision’s primary goals includes renewable sources generating 70% of the state’s electricity by 2030. To do that, the New York grid seeks to implement distributed energy resources into its fuel mix. How might New York’s energy market be redesigned to incorporate DERs like solar, energy storage, and others? NYISO’s proposed … Continue reading The Push for Renewables in New York

When it comes to capacity prices in New York state, the story changes depending on the geographic region. Capacity prices are historically low right now in upstate New York but increase through the Lower Hudson Valley toward New York City, due to transmission constraints. The announced retirement of Indian Point nuclear facility scheduled for 2020 … Continue reading New York City: high capacity prices, many demand-side energy management options

In the near future, organizations with flexible resources at their disposal will have an advantage when it comes to earning money for helping the grid. California is committed to integrating renewables into its electrical grid. The load-shift product is set to launch in November 2019.

California experiences a daily spike in energy demand in the early evening when renewable sources like solar go offline and residents come home from work and increase their energy consumption by flipping on their air conditioning, turning on their lighting, doing laundry, charging electronic devices, and engaging in other energy-consuming activities. When charted on a … Continue reading Has California finally solved “The Duck Curve?”

The Global Adjustment was introduced in 2006 to help Ontario cover the difference between electricity’s market rate and the contractually higher rates the provincial government had agreed to pay new generators in an attempt to stimulate private investment in Ontario’s generation system. All Ontario electricity customers pay global adjustment to cover the cost of the … Continue reading Is Global Adjustment in Ontario here to stay?

By the early-1990s, Ontario’s energy grid faced dire reliability and economic concerns. Many of the nuclear generation plants powering the province had been built in the 1970s and were starting to prematurely show their age, declining in efficiency and reliability. More recently-built nuclear stations had riddled Ontario Hydro (Ontario’s then publicly-owned and lone electric utility) … Continue reading The Ontario Market: a (very) brief history

Of the demand response programs that ERCOT offers, Load Resource offers the most lucrative potential–particularly during the summer months when demand on the grid is at or near its peak. Simply put, ERCOT’s tight reserve margin is brought about by diminished supply and growing electrical demand, which in turn causes high energy prices in Texas … Continue reading How to hedge against Load Resource proration in ERCOT

When the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) established Texas’ deregulated energy market in 1999, it had several very Texan ideals in mind. For starters, the market’s architects sought good old-fashioned economic competition to keep electricity prices stable and the state’s grid reliable. They also settled on another battle-tested Texan value concerning its energy market: … Continue reading Why doesn’t Texas have a Capacity Market?

ISO-NE’s implementation of its price-responsive demand construct has led to several changes in its demand response programs. Three key changes for 2019: DR programs are now dispatched based on economic (instead of emergency) conditions. DR is now considered fast-acting DR and must be dispatched within 30 minutes of the grid’s call for curtailment. DR resources … Continue reading Demand Response in New England: The more things change…

Currently, there are two developmental shifts taking place in New England concerning the electricity grid. The grid is shifting from conventional generation to renewable energy. The grid is also shifting from centrally dispatched generation to distributed energy resources. What was formerly a traditional power system is becoming a hybrid system with electricity needs met by … Continue reading New England’s Emerging Hybrid Grid

Summer 2019 is right around the corner, which means another season of PJM’s Emergency Capacity demand response (DR) program is set to kick off. This 2019/2020 marks an important pivot point for DR in PJM. With DR enrollment underway, let’s take a look at some things to expect this summer. 

On January 2, 2014, a sudden stratospheric warming caused a breakdown of the polar vortex, a semi-permanent low-pressure system of cold polar air that helps the jet stream maintain a roughly circular path as it travels around the globe. A healthy polar vortex keeps the jet stream in line, which in turn keeps the cold … Continue reading What has PJM learned from the Polar Vortex?

Peak-shaving, essentially the practice of an organization reducing its demand during times of peak grid stress to lower its capacity charges, is part of what the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission is considering as the agency examines PJM’s annual capacity construct. In a June 2018 proposal, PJM stated it hoped to reduce its capacity market demand … Continue reading Is Peak Shaving more Lucrative than Demand Response in PJM?

In our last ERCOT blog post, we laid out the record high demand/historically low supply scenario facing ERCOT and its customers this summer.
