Residential & Small Business Demand Response Program
Get Paid for using less Energy by knowing the right time to save
Imagine you're an airline passenger and the flight is overbooked. The airline will offer you an opportunity to wait for a later one and compensates you with a free ticket or maybe direct cash compensation. Now think about the energy grid, and imagine electricity demand is expected to exceed supply.
What if you were offered an opportunity to lower your energy consumption and get compensated for it?
Residents and small businesses in Rockland County, Orange County, and parts of Sullivan County can get paid by Meltek for temporarily reducing their electric use at critical times when demand for energy is at its highest and the electric grid is under stress.
