Title
National Assessment of Demand Response Potential
Description
The Energy Independent and Security Act of 2007 required the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to conduct a National Assessment of Demand Response Potential and report the result to Congress on: 1) The estimated nationwide demand response potential in 5 and 10 year horizons; 2) Barriers to demand response programs, and 3) Recommendations for overcoming barriers to more use of demand response. “This study takes a flexible, real-world approach to gathering information on the potential for demand response,” FERC Chairman Jon Wellinghoff said. “It also makes available to the public an easy-to-use spreadsheet model, complete with data inputs and assumptions, so that states, utilities and other interested parties can make updates or modifications based on their own data and policy priorities.”
