With electric rates more expensive during the summer season (June-September), businesses may be looking for a way to lower their monthly bills.
Demand Response (DR) programs provide an opportunity for electric customers to get paid for reducing their electric usage on critical days at critical times. These efforts will not only reduce your bill, but also lower emissions and help the California electric grid perform reliably.
