New York End Users Demand Response Program pays businesses to conserve electricity for a few hours, if the need arises
This helps the New York Independent System Operator (NYISO) and electric utilities meet peak electricity demand and defer the need to build new peaking power plants.
1. Enrollment: If you want a face-to-face meeting, an Sanrgy representative will come to your location to explain the program, review your facility and estimate the payment to your company. Alternatively, we can arrange a conference call to get started.
Eligibility requirements vary between regions; for an accurate estimate, contact an Sanrgy
2. Metering: You need an interval meter at your facility. If you do not have one, an interval meter will be installed on-site, free of charge. Sanrgy will access your interval data for reduction verification. In many cases, you will have the ability to log in and view your facility’s interval demands, kwh usage, voltage levels etc.
3. Reduction Events: An Event can be called only on non-holiday weekdays. Historically, there has been an average of just 2 events per year, for a maximum of 4 hours each.
4. Planning for a Reduction Event: You should put together a “Reduction Action Plan” that outlines who in your company is responsible for making electric reductions in the instance that an event is called. Having a plan will ensure that you carry out your reductions in an orderly manner with the full cooperation of your employees. Sanrgy can help you set up your plan.
Potential reduction strategies include shutting off equipment or processes, pumps and fans, turning off lighting, easing back or shutting down air conditioning and, if applicable, utilizing a generator. If you have an energy management system, reductions can be made from a central location.
