Abstract:
In RM10-17-000 NOPR, The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) is proposing to revise its regulations to establish the approach described below as compensation for demand response resources participating in organized energy markets. The Commission proposes that Independent System Operators (ISOs) and Regional Transmission Organizations (RTOs)with tariff provisions permitting demand response providers to participate as resources in energy markets by reducing consumption of electricity from their expected levels in response to price signals be required to pay to demand response providers, in all hours, the market price for energy for such reductions.

Short Statement:
This proposed rule, if adopted, would amend the Commissions regulations to obligate ISOs and RTOs to pay the market price for energy to demand response resources for demand reductions within each respective ISO and RTO region. Requiring ISOs and RTOs to pay the market price for energy to demand response resources for demand reductions in response to price signals will potentially reduce the market clearing price of electricity. The Commission has emphasized the importance of demand response as a vehicle for improving the competitiveness of organized wholesale electricity markets and ensuring supplies of energy at just, reasonable and not unduly discriminatory or preferential rates.
