These program guidelines for the Demand Side Grid Support (DSGS) Program establish the rules for the program, including eligibility requirements, participation process, and participation options. Created by Assembly Bill (AB) 205 (Ting, Chapter 61, Statutes of 2022) and expanded by Assembly Bill 209 (Ting, Chapter 251, Statutes of 2022) as part of the Strategic Reliability Reserve, the DSGS Program provides performance-based payments to reduce customer net-energy load during extreme events with upfront capacity commitments and per-unit reductions in net load.
