TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a comprehensive overview on how policy and regulations, electricity market reform, and technological advancement in the US and other countries have worked for demand response to become a viable demand-side resource to address the energy and environmental challenges.

TL;DR: The intention of the open automated demand response communications data model is to provide interoperable signals to building and industrial control systems that are preprogrammed to take action based on a demand response signal, enabling ademand response event to be fully automated, with no manual intervention.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present case studies of energy information systems (EIS) at four enterprises and university campuses, focusing on the attained energy savings, and successes and challenges in technology use and integration.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the concept for and lessons from the development and field-testing of an open, interoperable communications infrastructure to support automated demand response (auto-DR), which allows greater levels of participation, improved reliability, and repeatability of the DR in participating facilities.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarized the state of the art in leveraging distributed resources to improve resilience of the electric grid and highlighted the technical questions that need to be addressed through additional research and development if the value of distributed resources is to be maximized.
