What is Auto-DR?
Automated Demand Response (Auto-DR) is a communication and technology platform designed to: Provide customers with automated, electronic price and
reliability signals
Provide customers with the capability to identify and automate site specific demand response strategies
Improve the reliability of demand response programs so they can achieve the same operational status as conventional generation resources at a fraction of the cost
Auto-DR can support all DR and pricing options
Auto-DR is not a program but rather a platform for enabling existing and proven technologies

Auto-DR 2008 Program Summary
Program Goals: Ensure that approximately 22.9 MW of Auto-DR from
2007 is available for DR events in 2008 Enable additional 7-8 MW of Auto-DR to bring total
capability from 2007-08 efforts to 30 MW Commercialize Auto-DR program delivery
2008 Auto-DR program open to customers on Critical Peak Pricing (CPP) and/or Demand Bidding (DBP) programs
8
Accomplishments in 2008
Approximately 7.5 MW recruited with over 1.1 MW now tested and ready for program deployment
Remaining 6.4 MW currently in the enablement process
A total of 11 CPP events held this summer (between 5/15/08 and 9/4/08)

2008 Results – CPP Events
29 facilities participated in all 11 CPP events in 2008
1.7 MW of actual shed from 3-6PM using the CPP Morning Adjustment baseline method for the 11 CPP events
That reduction represents 70% of the automated load shed capability

2008 Results – DBP Events
54 facilities participated in 1 test event (2PM-6PM) on 7/9/08
Average 12.45 MW of bids received by 3:30PM day-before for the event
11.1 MW provided load reductions for at least 2 hours (drawing upon the CPUC-approved 3/10 baseline method)
The achieved reduction represents 85% of the bid amounts

Program Planning for 2009-11
Customer support for current program participants to ensure continued functionality of automation systems
Continue offering enablement incentives (up to $250/kW) for new participants who adopt Auto-DR measures
Expand automation into other emerging DR program options
Emphasis on distribution and feeder congestion management through Auto-DR
19
The Future of the DRAS
Client Feedback Shed Potential: What the facility is capable of shedding
(at all times) Shed Performance: Facility kW reduction vs. baseline
(during events)
Location Based Auto-DR Event constraints based upon grid and geographic
locations Shed Potential and Performance for groups of clients
defined by their grid and geographic location
20
Projects at the DR Research Center Supporting Auto-DR
Embedding Auto-DR Clients in control systems
Piloting small commercial Auto-DR systems using low-cost communicating thermostats
Developing large commercial pre-cooling field studies and simulation tools
Testing dimmable lighting systems, designs to provide efficiency and DR
Evaluating industrial processes - case studies on refrigerated warehouses, wastewater, controls
Planning implementation of OpenADR in Title 24
21
Linking Energy Efficiency and DR

Participant’s Forum – Potential Topics for Discussion
Results of the end-of-year participant survey showed that all current Auto-DR customers plan to continue in Auto-DR in 2009. What is your primary reason for continuing with Auto-DR?
Savings? Ease of participating in DR events? Employment of advanced technology?
What can be done to improve Auto-DR for you? Additional shed performance information? An updated technical audit of your site(s) for additional load
shed opportunities? A review of your manual sheds to assess their potential for
automation?
We’re thinking of a doing a webinar prior to the beginning of the 2009 DR season to bring you updated Auto-DR information. Would you be interested in attending and participating?
Thank You!
