Title
Demand Response Programs Will Reduce Peak Load in the US by 10% by 2020
Description
Demand response programs will play a major role in reducing peak electricity demand in the US by 2020 – and with those programs in place, peak demand could be reduced by about 100 gigawatts, or 10%, by 2020 with resulting savings of over $70 billion over 20 years through avoided energy production, energy distribution and energy generation costs. Without demand response programs, peak demand is estimated to grow at an annual rate of 1.7%, according to this report from Research and Markets. Smart grid-enabled demand response programs would benefit both individual and large energy consumers.

 THE TUESDAY TOPIC

If you could design your own smart grid demo, what would it look like?

Three new demonstration projects caught our attention - a smart grid effort in Albuquerque's business district, a rapid recovery transformer study in Texas and a trial involving low voltage current sensor technologies in the UK. They also got us to thinking: At this stage in the smart grid build out, if you could design a demonstration project, what would it entail? That's our latest Tuesday Topic; click for the details.
