Demand Response
Demand Response is a system that encourages consumers to adjust their electricity usage during peak times or when the grid is under stress. By reducing or shifting electricity consumption upon request, consumers help balance supply and demand, which can prevent power outages and lower costs. This is often done through incentives or alerts, allowing the grid to operate more efficiently and sustainably. Essentially, it involves consumers playing a proactive role in managing energy use, benefiting both the system and the environment.
