This is the 2011 update to the North American Wholesale Electricity Demand Response Comparison, commonly referred to as the DR Matrix.
Click here to download the spreadsheet.
For the benefit of those who are new to the DR Matrix, the Comparison workbook contains five tabs:
- Product and Service Definitions – descriptions that primarily correspond to NAESB’s Business Practice Standards for Measurement & Verification (M&V) of Wholesale Electricity Demand Response, with active links to supporting materials for each demand response Product or Service. Product and Service descriptions also include relevant information that corresponds with the 2010 IRC project for Smart Grid Standards for demand response.
- Performance Evaluation Methods – descriptions about the performance evaluation methods associated with the Products and Services.
- Acronyms – a detailed list of acronyms used in the workbook and the ISO/RTO that uses the acronym.
- Definitions – a brief list of definitions.
- Timing Examples – scenarios that help describe the application of the Demand Response Event Timing diagram from the NAESB Business Practice Standards for Measurement and Verification (M&V) of Wholesale Electricity Demand Response.
The workbook content is protected, however the filters at the top of each column on the Products and Service Definitions tab and the Performance Evaluation Methods tab may be used to limit the display to specific Products and Services that meet the selected criteria within a column.
The 2009 and 2010 Comparison worksheets are also posted on the Documents and Issues page of the IRC website using this link:Wholesale Demand Response Comparison
