New York State of the Market: Navigate Demand Response Changes and Unlock Participation Opportunities
New York’s electricity demand is rising due to electrification and the retirement of older power plants. Virtual Power Plants and Demand Response (DR) programs are critical to keeping the grid stable. As the energy landscape shifts, it’s essential to stay up to date on regulatory changes and new program opportunities. This session is ideal for energy managers, facility operators, and sustainability leaders looking to optimize their demand-side strategy in New York.
Accelerating Speed to Power and Unlocking Innovation with Virtual Power Plants
Flexing data center load through demand response and virtual power plants (VPPs) provides a proven, fast and cost-effective way to power the innovative energy economy.
In an interview with Data Center Dynamics at Yotta 2025, CPower Energy’s David Chernis shared how the latest innovations in energy technology unlock the full potential of flexible energy and drive economic growth powered by artificial intelligence. In dispelling falsehoods about the feasibility of using data centers as critical grid assets, he illustrates the importance of designing data centers for a future in which flexibility speeds connection to power and automation spurs efficiency.

Capture Energy Incentives and Strengthen
the Power Grid
Electrification, rising EV adoption and extreme weather events have put a tremendous strain on our power grid. The resulting power outages and rolling blackouts that come from grid imbalances are disruptive and costly for facility operations. Fortunately for facility professionals, options exist to open new revenue streams, reduce energy costs, and advance sustainability goals with virtually no disruption to productivity.
Watch this webinar and you’ll learn:
-
- How your facility can manage its curtailable load for various grid service programs and be compensated for it. Plus a breakdown of load curtailment methods per sector.
- The capabilities and benefits of virtual power plants.
- How regional demand response programs work covering the latest updates on regional trends and opportunities, including where to stack programs for maximum returns and how to evaluate which programs are right for your organization.
- How to maximize the value of DER investments with machine-learning powered software that intelligently analyzes and automates energy assets across multiple programs and sites.
- Firsthand account of the PennState Health Milton S. Hershey Medical Center’s success through the PJM Capacity program.
- The Center’s goals, objectives, and plans for expanding its demand response participation through the PJM Synchronous Reserve and Economic programs.
AI Loads are Valuable: Crypto Miners Offer Ways to Benefit from Flexible Energy Strategies
In this interactive panel hosted by CPower and OBM, experts from the mining sector will show how they have overcome similar concerns about their load growth by participating in virtual power plants, including through demand response. Mining experts will also share best practices for AI data centers that would like to benefit from leveraging their flexible loads.
Earn Revenue with CPower and APS: When the Mercury Rises Across Arizona
Arizona had the hottest summer on record in 2023, with Phoenix recording 55 days above 110°F — and this summer is expected to be no different. When the mercury rises, Arizona Public Service (APS) maintains a reliable, affordable and clean supply of energy thanks in part to its demand response program, Peak Solutions. This program provides financial rewards to commercial and industrial organizations for implementing voluntary energy conservation measures when demand peaks on the power grid.
