If Germany deployed demand response it could get upside of renewables avoid brownouts AND reduce coal dependence! http://t.co/bQbPRxjeRx @ft

Aggregated DSR capacity could help mitigate risk of these centralised generator failures. Whilst saving UK plc £s! http://t.co/vebzopQ7Vp

Great to hear Steve Holliday, CE @nationalgriduk explaining demand response, pity it was to a rather misinformed and partisan @BBCr4today

[Tempus Energy @tempusenergy]

DSR = NOT turning lights off but moving some load away from peak times for energy security at LOWEST COST @nationalgriduk tells @BBCr4today

[Tempus Energy @tempusenergy]

Demand response = SMART solution, GOOD for business & cheaper than building power stations: Steve Holliday @nationalgriduk on @BBCr4today

@GeoffreyLean in today's @Telegraph Better capacity market terms for demand side = £359m off energy bills. http://t.co/2u1ZyananR

If @GreenLibDems want 2 end coal by 2025 & promote #energyefficiency why design Capacity Market 2 keep coal open/exclude DSR @EdwardDaveyMP?

[Tempus Energy @tempusenergy]

@LibDems want 2 end coal power by 2025 & promote #energyefficiency. So why design CM 2 keep coal plant open & freeze out DSR @EdwardDaveyMP?

Great @CHPA_UK and @ukdrassociation roundtable today with @alanwhiteheadmp at #lab14. Energy users, LAs, local biz can all play bigger role!

Excluding Demand Response from Capacity Market will add £359m to consumer bills. See today's @Telegraph http://t.co/kAcq0Xvlqd

Demand reduction reduces people's bills & that is the best way to sell it. @matthancockmp tells Energy & Climate Select Committee #DRInquiry

[UKDRA @ukdrassociation]

@matthancockmp says @DECCgovuk will make "technical fix" to enable CHP below 2MW to participate in capacity mech. #DRInquiry @REAssociation

Market leaders bring engaged consumers ahead of curve & mass market follows. @matthancockmp on smart demand tech at EEC #DRInquiry.

[UKDRA @ukdrassociation]

Benefits of smart meters increased with tariffs to incentivise demand reduction at peak times. Says @matthancockmp at EEC #DRInquiry.
