Demand Response
Get Paid, Use Less, Protect the Grid—and the Environment
In partnership with select providers, SES facilitates Demand Response (DR) programs for eligible customers. As part of the DR program, you will be eligible to receive compensation for reducing your energy usage when the grid is put under additional stress.
Your operational flexibility has real value. By participating in Demand Response (DR), you not only support grid reliability but also get paid for reducing energy use during peak times. And the financial benefits are just the beginning.
Tools to Maximize Your DR Performance
Advanced web-based dashboards will show you how your facility is tracking toward its energy reduction targets during a DR dispatch. These tools help ensure you’re meeting targets—and maximizing your earnings—during every DR event.
SES also offers notification services for DR events, as well as energy tracking services.
Year-Round Energy Intelligence
DR events may be infrequent, but the right technology delivers value every day. Our platform helps reduce overall energy costs by up to 30% with tools that offer:
- Alerts before your usage hits peak levels
- Insights to lower base load and cut off-hours consumption
- Intuitive dashboards for real-time tracking
- Reports and visuals to track progress and savings
- Benchmarking against targets, history, or peer facilities
- Unified access to all your energy data, anytime, anywhere
- Bill shadowing to detect and avoid overcharges
- Load curve and power factor analysis to guide smarter energy purchasing
- Early warnings of potential blackouts
Get Paid to Support a Cleaner Grid
Sustainability doesn’t have to come at a premium. Demand response allows your organization to earn revenue while actively contributing to a more resilient, low-carbon energy system.
By joining a virtual power plant, you reduce dependence on fossil-fueled generation and help smooth the path for renewable energy. As solar and wind fluctuate, grid operators rely on flexible resources like demand response to keep the system balanced. Your participation not only strengthens the grid—it enables a cleaner energy future, and you’re compensated for the role you play.
