Report: Operationalizing and Quantifying the Demand Stack
Supply chain constraints and interconnection delays are limiting utilities' ability to meet growing electricity demand. The Demand Stack offers a solution: an integrated approach to demand response (DR) and energy efficiency (EE) that treats demand-side resources as reliable capacity resources.
Uplight commissioned The Brattle Group to analyze the Demand Stack's potential for a Midwestern U.S utility. The findings demonstrate that utilities can significantly expand their demand reduction capability through coordinated program design, improved forecasting, and smarter dispatch—without building new infrastructure.

Read the report to learn how:
- The Demand Stack integrates and coordinates demand-side management programs
- Six Demand Stack strategies—including improved load shed forecasting, staggered dispatch, and more—could help the utility increase DR & EE capability 62% by 2030
- This framework can help other utilities navigate load growth, electrification, affordability, and grid reliability challenges
