Title: ●Demand Response Compensation in Organized Wholesale Energy Markets 
Abstract: The Commission issued a Supplemental Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NOPR) and Notice of Technical Conference to provide additional opportunity for comment on issues related to the March 18, 2010 NOPR, 75 FR 15,362 (March 29, 2010), regarding the appropriate compensation to be paid to demand response resources in organized wholesale electric markets administered by Independent System Operators or Regional Transmission Organizations. The Commission proposed an approach for compensating demand response resources in order to improve the competitiveness of organized wholesale energy markets and thus ensure just and reasonable wholesale rates. The Supplemental NOPR seeks comment on whether the Commission should adopt requirements related to two issues addressed in comments: (1) If the Commission were to adopt a net benefits test for determining when to compensate demand response providers, what, if any, requirements should apply to the methods for determining net benefits; and (2) what, if any, requirements should apply to how the costs of demand response are allocated. The Commission also invites all interested persons to submit comments in response to the issues discussed in the Supplemental NOPR, (Docket No. RM10-17-000).
