Steven Chu, U.S. Energy Secretary: “Price signals do matter, but you can’t just simply use a price signal. You really have to make it very easy to save energy."

Stu Bresler, PJM’s Vice President – Market Operations and Demand Response: “Our market provides real-time price signals about grid congestion and the locational cost and need for power. Demand response providers such as EnergyConnect enable end-use customers to readily receive and respond to our price signals so they can manage their costs effectively and influence wholesale power prices by reducing demand while improving grid reliability.”
