The Future is Demand-Side: Best Practices in Implementing a Demand Stack

As demand surges and DERs proliferate, utilities face the challenge of balancing grid reliability, affordability, and decarbonization. Traditional supply-side investment models are becoming less relevant in today’s environment of decentralized energy adoption and evolving regulatory mandates. This session explores Uplight’s Demand Stack approach—a framework integrating energy efficiency (EE), demand response (DR), and time-varying rates into a cohesive strategy that utilities can use to maximize grid and customer benefits.

 

Join industry peers in a conversation around successes and challenges in:

  • Aligning EE, DR, and Rates programs to create an integrated demand-side approach
  • Empowering customers through a variety of programs 
  • Operationalizing the demand stack through precise forecasting and load shaping
