PJMlogo
PJM is the world's largest power grid, and has offered full support to FADRS^® in a pilot project between CED/FADRS^® and PJM, a showcase to demonstrate FADRS^® ability for sucessful demand response participation in PJM's "real time" energy and acillary markets.

"CED's proposed demonstration showcase (FADRS™) will provide a great benefit to the electric utilities. PJM is pleased to support your proposal to all electric utility companies in our service territory (including NJ electric utility companies) and looks forward to working with your team on the showcase."

What is Demand Response

Demand response programs exist in energy markets across North America, and each region has opportunities that help meet their unique energy reduction goals. This is actually an "insurance policy" for the ISO that they can rely on during the hottest, most humid summer days when the demand for electricity approaches the available supply.

What is Smart Grid?

The goal to developing a "Smart Grid" is to upgrade our electric grid to be more efficient, more reactive to real-time grid conditions, and promote more sophisticated demand management strategies. Commercial & Industrial implementation of Demand Response are the most effective form of smart grid implementations, and among the most complex.
