A building optimizes its heating, cooling, lighting, and plug loads in real time by receiving signals from the grid about current carbon intensity, wholesale prices, and reliability needs. The building automatically reduces load when carbon intensity is high and stores energy when renewables are abundant. What emerging concept does this describe?
The Utility Cost Test (UCT) and the Total Resource Cost (TRC) test both evaluate DSM programs but differ in which costs are included. What is the key difference between these two tests?
After a 4-hour demand response event in which a building reduced HVAC operation, metered data shows that load increases sharply above the customer baseline for 1-2 hours immediately after the event ends. What is this phenomenon called, and why is it important to grid operators?
A DSM program manager conducts a mid-program review and finds that a large industrial customer segment is achieving 30% higher savings than projected. What should the manager do with this information?
A DSM manager wants to set a minimum efficiency threshold for a commercial refrigeration rebate program. Rather than developing custom specifications, the manager decides to use an existing federal program's efficiency criteria. Which program provides these standardized efficiency specifications?
