Business Model for Retail Aggregation of Responsive Load

Project Status: 
Completed

This research project is exploring a proposed change in market design (and a corresponding business model) aimed at mobilizing the available flexibility of certain loads through proper incentives, and an aggregation scheme which will provide flexible resources to mitigate the uncertainty of variable energy resources (VERs)—allowing VERs to internalize the cost of uncertainty by contracting with responsive load (DR).
