  • Abstract
    Demand Response (DR) provides major benefits to utilities: increasing T&D capacity utilization, improving system reliability, enabling customer service choices, fostering energy efficiency, reducing carbon footprint, and facilitating energy market participation. This panel explores the benefit opportunities and challenges of DR, and how DR can be built on today´s Advanced Metering Infrastructures (AMI), establishing a key cornerstone for Smart Grid. The challenges include technology, marketing communication, organization change management, and system deployment and maintenance.
