One of the first things listed in the report as an action item for addressing the looming problem is that “Electric utilities, with support from state, federal, and provincial government need to actively pursue effective and efficient demand response programs”. </div> <bR> <div> The report was issued by the North American Electric Reliability Council (NERC), the entity recently chosen by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) as the nation’s first official “Electric Reliability Organization” (ERO). The establishment of an ERO was mandated by Congress in the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPACT), and the organization was authorized to oversee mandatory standards for operating the bulk power system in the U.S.</div> <bR> <div> Joining the other speakers on the Webinar presented by the U.S. Demand Response Coordinating Committee (DRCC) will be <B>Rick Sergel, CEO of NERC</B>, who will talk about the findings in the report and how the organization sees the role of demand response in ensuring adequacy of the nation’s power grid. </div> <bR> <div> <B>What:     Webinar </B></div> <div> <B>                 "Delivering Demand Response – A Report from the Front Lines"</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>When:     Friday, November 3, 2006  </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>           12:00 p.m. - 1:30 p.m. (EDT)</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Cost:         Free for State Regulators and Staff (limit 3 per organization)</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>                  $195.00 for all others</B></div> <div>  </div> <bR> <div> <B>Speakers:    </B></div> <bR> <div> <FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#FF0000" FACE="Arial" ><B>           </B></FONT><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#FF0000" FACE="Arial" ><B> </B></FONT><I><B>Rick Sergel,  </B></I>CEO, North American Electricity Reliability Council (NERC)</div> <bR> <div> <I><B>David Brewster</B></I><B>, </B>Co-Founder and President, EnerNOC</div> <bR> <div> <I><B>Bud Vos,</B></I><B> </B>Vice President, Comverge, Inc.</div> <bR> <div> <B>Moderator:</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>       </B><I><B> Dan Delurey, </B></I><B>U.S. Demand Response Coordinating Committee (DRCC)</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <B>How to register:</B></div> <bR> <div> You have two options to register: You can either download the registration form and fax it to 781-756-8008, or you can register online using the link below.
