Aggregator Programs
- Aggregator Managed Portfolio (AMP)

Each Aggregator designs its own program; you can select the Aggregator whose services best meet your business needs. - Business Energy Coalition (BEC)
At the order of the CPUC, PG&E has been asked to close the Business Energy Coalition (BEC) program to new enrollments and end the program on October 31, 2009. Existing BEC customers have the option to enroll in any other Demand Response program. - Capacity Bidding Program (CBP)
Enroll with (or as) a third-party aggregator to reduce load. This program runs from May until October, paying monthly incentives for joining the program as well as incentives on event days.
