Between now and 2025, Ontario must build almost a whole new electricity system. This includes replacing about 80% of its current generating facilities as they retire over time, and expanding the system to meet future growth. That’s why the provincial government directed all local distribution companies to install smart meters in every home and small business in the province by 2010. Smart meters, when teamed with time-of-use pricing, are a key part of building a culture of conservation across the province and achieving signifi cant reductions in peak demand through load shifting. This case study illustrates how Hydro One's intelligent communications infrastructure has laid the foundation for the Smart Grid of the future — a smart network that will integrate energy efficiency, demand response, automation, and distributed generation to enable the grid to operate more efficiently and reliably. |

This report reviews policy developments on demand response and other related areas such as smart meters and smart grid. It focuses on state and federal policy developments during the period from 2005 to mid- 2008, with emphasis on states implementation of the demand response and smart metering provisions - Section 1252 - of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPACT). It demonstrates that a substantial amount of policymaking related to demand response has happened recently or is presently under way. |

I am Chengrui Cai who is a PhD graduate student with major in Power and Energy System. Now my research lies in SmartGrid. As far as I know, one of the important goal of the SmartGrid is to bring distributed generation to homes in US, which aims to install solar panel and small wind turbine in homes. However, ...
