Join Consolidated Edison on Tuesday, February 7 from 10:15am-10:45am PT in the Resiliency track (room 31C, Upper Level) for "Active Premise Load Shedding: Ensuring Power Supply to Critical Customers".
When storms and extreme weather conditions occur, utilities need to be able to lower demand within seconds to match supply constraints while keeping critical infrastructure and priority customers energized. Learn how utilities are actively shedding load at individual customer levels during events (emergencies, weather-related conditions such as floods) to disconnect non-critical customers while keeping the power on for those who need it the most (emergency responders, hospitals, etc.).
