Allowing citizens to earn money by saving energy and stabilizing the grid.
This law enables companies (aggregators) to combine the ability of many households to reduce electricity consumption during peak hours. Citizens can earn money from their energy flexibility, aiming to increase grid stability and promote clean energy. This change applies to customers of large utility providers and requires new rules from the federal regulatory commission within one year.
Key points
New earning opportunities: Citizens can be paid for voluntarily reducing electricity use during critical times (known as demand flexibility).
Increased competition in the energy market: Grid management organizations must allow third-party companies to offer demand management services.
Support for clean energy: Making demand more flexible helps integrate intermittent renewable sources, stabilizing the power grid.
