Demand Response Across the Continental US for 2006

Description

This project estimates hourly demand response availability across the continental U.S. for the year 2006. The resulting data set is disaggregated by balancing authority area, end use, and grid application. End uses include 14 categories across residential, commercial, industrial and municipal sectors. Grid applications include the 5 bulk power system services of regulation reserve, flexibility (or ramping) reserve, contingency reserve, energy, and capacity. Based on the physical requirements of the various bulk power system services and the estimated end use electric load shapes, potential availability of demand response is calculated and provided as a series of csv files.
