What is Demand Management?

Demand management is an essential part of our cooperative model. It allows us to manage participating devices, like air source heat pumps, electric heat, and water heaters on days when energy use is at its highest. 

Reduce Wholesale Power Costs: 
By lowering peak demand, we avoid purchasing expensive power from the energy market, which helps keep rates stable for everyone.

Support Grid Reliability: 
Managing demand during peak times helps prevent strain on the electric grid, ensuring a reliable power supply for all members.

Help Members Save: 
Members who participate in these programs often receive a credit or a special rate for allowing us to manage participating devices.
