Demand response can save a significant amount of energy through more efficient matching of supply generation with demand. From the 2008 FERC Survey: 2008 FERC Survey asked respondents to provide estimates of the potential peak load reductions (in MW), actual peak reductions (in MW), potential MWh change and actual MWh changes as of the end of [...] From the 2008 FERC Demand Response and Advanced Metering Survey, here is what different ISOs are proposing to the FERC regarding their intentions for implementing demand response smart grid application technology: Midwest ISO: FERC conditionally accepted the Midwest ISO’s proposal to implement a dayahead and real-time ancillary services market. The market design provides for the integration [...] OfficeDrop is a cloud filing system, scanner software provider and document scanning service that helps small businesses manage paper and digital documents. OfficeDrop provides tools that sync businesses’ desktops and scanners with an online search engine and cloud filing cabinet. The affordable service saves businesses time and money by enhancing paper based collaboration and workflows, [...] Florida and Texas lead advanced metering penetration, well ahead of other regions in the United States and Canada. Advanced Metering Penetration by Region Source and text: 2008 FERC Demand Response and Advanced Metering Survey, Figure II-3. Smart demand response can minimize congestion, increase efficiency within markets, and enhance reliability of the entire energy/electricity system. Demand response is one of the most important smart grid applications! Read more in 2008 FERC Demand Response and Advanced Metering Survey Advanced metering penetration varies by the type of utility. Cooperatives lead penetration of advanced metering. Advanced metering penetration by utility Source and text: 2008 FERC Demand Response and Advanced Metering Survey, Figure II-2. Incorporating demand response resources into planning horizons and load forecasts allows transmission providers more accurately understand the energy needs of their areas, thereby deferring or offsetting investments in new peak generation or transmission. Demand response is one of the most important smart grid applications!

FRCC – Florida Reliability Coordinating Council Obviously these groups [...] Advanced metering penetration varies by the ownership structure of the utility. The results of the 2008 FERC Demand Response and Advanced Metering Survey (2008 FERC Survey) indicate that cooperatives advanced metering penetration increased dramatically, “Cooperatives’ advanced metering penetration increased from 3.8 percent in 2006 to 16.4 percent in 2008.” There have been significant increases in advanced metering in the US since 2006. The results of the 2008 FERC Demand Response and Advanced Metering Survey (2008 FERC |
