Examples of established DR Programs Sample Clauses

Examples of established DR Programs in Europe Europe holds the second place in the DR market worldwide and the EU countries have recently demonstrated interest in occupying a wider portion of the DR market in the future. Many countries in EU are progressing towards implementing DR actions into their electric power system structures, as shown in Fig. 3.243 Figure 3.2: Map of Explicit (i.e. Incentive-based) DR development in Europe 2017. There has been an overall increase of interest in enabling DR in almost of all the countries examined. Since 2015, regulatory changes have been implemented or are planned in many European countries.

New legislation addressing the role of the aggregator and independent aggregation will soon be put in place in Belgium, which will help to provide an equal footing for all market actors; a strong sign for the uptake of DR. However, there are still some issues regarding measurement and verification that inhibit the growth of DR. In Ireland, the new “Integrated Single Electricity Market” to be implemented in 2018, together with the DS3 programme, will open a range of markets for demand-side response, specifically the balancing market, and the wholesale market, as well as a newly designed Capacity Mechanism.
