The cost of electricity is derived from a supply and demand function on the electrical grid. A large portion of the cost comes from a very small portion of hours out of the year. A DRP is an innovative solution to these significant and infrequent costs. The programs actively curtail electricity consumption during specific time periods. Not only do these programs cut costs of electricity but also impact the environment by reducing the need to run high-carbon producing generators thus giving us the benefit of reducing pollution.
