Respond Power offers PPL customers day-ahead time-of-use curtailment incentive

PennFuture reports on a new program from Respond Power, serving customers in PPL energy territory and allowing them ‘respond’  to day-ahead peak demand announcements with curtailed consumption. Successful conservators receive incentive payments at the end of the month if their ‘demand response’ profile for the entire month was good enough.

Currently, Respond Power is marketing the program to customers in the PPL service territory, where both residential and commercial consumers have smart meters. Smart meters allow Respond Power to track a customer’s electricity consumption on an hourly basis. The company alerts enrolled customers a day in advance as to when peak price spikes will occur the following day. The company then tracks the customer’s hourly usage during the targeted peak hours and, at the end of the month, a virtual Smart Bill is created. If the Smart Bill is lower than the regular bill, the customer receives a rebate for the difference.
