Xcel Energy RFI: Demand Response Offerings for Residential Customers with Advanced Meters

Posted June 23, 2023
Xcel Energy is seeking ideas for Demand Response offerings for residential customers with advanced meters. Xcel Energy is taking a technology-neutral, pay-for-performance approach and is open to a variety of proposals including those for aggregation, virtual power plants, and direct load control. However, should your proposal be in an earlier stage and not ready for full commercial deployment Xcel Energy is interested in receiving innovative or new ideas for demand management and partnering with third parties to develop those ideas.
Advanced metering is currently only available in the residential market, and this is the primary focus of this RFI, but with advanced commercial meters coming to market in the future, ideas for both segments will be accepted.
Xcel Energy, in agreement with the other settling parties, is further expanding the scope of this RFI to include gas DR ideas with the caveat that Xcel Energy does not have advanced gas meters and is not specifically seeking ideas that utilize advanced gas meters.
The full RFI, with a submission form, can be found on the Xcel Energy website.
If you have any questions on the RFI, or would like to submit a response, please contact [email protected].
