ECS’ PowerPay! Demand Response Program is unique in that it provides several types of payments to the participating business – with NO COST. The money only flows one way – from ECS to you, not vice versa. The types of payments are:

• Base capacity payment – This is the largest payment and is paid for your standing by if and when a reduction event is called. You are essentially just like a power plant sitting by waiting to help the electric grid if and when it is needed
  
• Energy Payment – You are paid for the energy (electric) you reduce during reduction events in the same manner as a power plant supplying electricity to the grid
  
• Displaced Energy Savings – You receive 100% of all savings achieved by not using your reduced electricity during the event hours, with ECS taking 0%

Payments are made by check or wire directly from ECS to your business. You can use the money as you wish – it is not merely a credit to your electric bill

On rare occasions the electric grid experiences a high degree of stress (usually in extremely hot weather). In order to reduce the strain on the grid, demand response programs have been developed by utilities and grid operators.
