Platte River Power Authority and/or Longmont Power & Communications will provide options and incentives for electric utility customers to participate in a demand response program that manages electricity use in the home to reduce peak demand, shift the peak load, or absorb excess production.

A residential thermostat demand response demonstration was conducted in 2022 (Smarter Summer with ecobee) and City staff is pausing on further programming until all customers have smart electric meters (end of 2024). During the pause, City staff coordinated with Platte River Power Authority and the other owner communities to solicit proposals from vendors that enroll and manage customer devices that help utilities manage energy load. Work will begin with a selected vendor in 2025.
