Demand Response Programs

PG&E also has incentives for customers to reduce electric power use when the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) determines that the state's energy supplies are low. Many businesses can be great candidates for these Demand Response programs.

Self-Generation Incentive Program

Business customers can also receive incentives for generating their own power in parallel with the electric system grid (not back-up generation). To receive these incentives the self-generation system must meet program requirements. PG&E is available to help you throughout the process. For more information about these programs visit the Self-Generation Incentive program pages.

Energy Watch Partnerships

Seventeen cities, counties and agencies have joined with PG&E in Energy Watch Partnerships to extend the reach and effectiveness of energy efficiency, demand response, renewable energy and self-generation programs, based on the unique needs of the local areas.
