Watt’s Up With Backup Generators?
Simplifying back-up generation rules, permitting, and demand response participation.
Renewables are here and continue to displace traditional coal resources on the grid. Battery storage is compelling and becoming more cost-effective — but it is still not a full-proof, scalable solution. Utilities are battling the challenges of grid intermittency amidst infrastructure challenges to support renewable penetration. All of this to say, the tried-and-true back-up generator is still the go-to resource when it comes to energy resilience and still remains a misunderstood energy resource.
Join CPower’s back up generation and demand response experts Arusyak Ghukasyan and Michael Mindell for this 30-minute panel to learn and understand topics including:
- How generators can earn revenue for your organization
- The rules and policies for BUGs at the federal, state, and local level
- Common myths about using BUGs for ‘non-emergency’ situations like demand response and testing under load
- What industries, markets, and programs are more favorable to BUGs for revenue
- How to fund and finance generator upgrades or replacements

State of the 2020 Texas Energy Market (Webinar)
In recent years, Texas’s energy market has been put to the test with shrinking reserve margins, increased electrical demand, and grid-threatening heat waves. The ERCOT grid has held and the market has helped organizations in the Lone Star State earn significant revenue by monetizing distributed energy resources.
The Covid-19 pandemic of 2020, however, has unleashed a Texas-sized helping of uncertainty across the state, causing organizations like yours to scramble for energy insights needed to optimize your energy use and spend.
The one-hour webinar is designed to give your organization the demand-side energy management insights you need to make the most of 2020 and beyond in Texas.
Topics to be covered include:
- How ERCOT’s economic-driven market design differs from other US energy markets (and why that design may be better for your organization’s bottom line)
- Why renewable energy is growing in Texas
- How organizations with distributed generation resources can earn revenue
- Lucrative demand response opportunities in Texas
- And more…

The Future of Demand Response in Texas (Webinar)
Download the slides from this webinar (PDF)
Bouncing Back From 2020 in Texas’s Resilient Energy Market
2020 … what a year we’ve had in ERCOT so far! Oil and gas prices have dropped to near-record lows. COVID-19 has driven massive energy usage declines across the world while rebalancing load demand in ERCOT as many organizations shift to work-from-home environments.
Through it all, ERCOT has maintained a very tight reserve margin while adjusting its energy policy. But, as always, Texas’s energy market design has proven to be up to the challenge.
The question, however, for most commercial and industrial energy managers is “what does all this mean for my organization’s energy strategy now and in the future?”
The good news is CPower has kept its finger on the pulse of these important topics and is ready to help your organization better plan, prepare, and implement your energy strategy for success … so you don’t have to.
Join us for this 60-minute webinar to learn:
- The changes and updates in the ERCOT energy market
- Energy programs in ERCOT that deliver revenue to help offset costs (or losses)
- A deep-dive into ERCOT’s Load Resource (LR) and Emergency Response Services (ERS) demand response programs
- The changes and opportunities on the horizon for energy consumers in Texas
Led by Mike Hourihan, Director of Market Development in the ERCOT market, and Joe Hayden, General Manager, ERCOT with CPower. The webinar will also have a live Q&A session to answer all of your demand-side energy management questions.
