You could earn $12K or more per MW per season.*
As an NRG customer, you have a unique opportunity to earn money for consuming less energy during periods of peak demand by participating in our Responsive Economic Dispatch (RED) program. Designed for customers like you, our simple, flexible load management program can help your school district lower usage and costs and earn money for that reduction. What you earn can then be applied via bill credits or a check at the end of the year.

Unlike traditional demand response programs, the RED program:
- Provides day-ahead notifications
- Has short event durations of two hours or less
- Doesn’t have penalties
- Includes expert guidance and a custom reduction action plan

Why is it important to reduce consumption during certain periods?
Weather variability and the current grid structure in Texas are creating a growing need to lower usage when the demand on the grid is high. Your commitment to reduce can put money back into your budget, while helping you use less and lower costs.
Every kilowatt you don’t use has value. RED helps you monetize your usage reduction so that you can redirect the money you earn to where it is needed most.
* The earning potential for RED can vary based on a variety of factors, including the program you’re enrolled in, the number of events called and that you participate in, the committed MW reduction, and the achieved MW reduction per event. The number of events called by NRG can vary throughout the year. The earnings estimate is based on 100% participation in all events called during a season (i.e. summer or winter) with a minimum 1 MW curtailment commitment but does not include certain program credits NRG also pays those participating in RED.
