PG&E and Olivine on Unlocking Load Flexibility for Diverse Customers

June 2022

This summer, PG&E’s Emergency Load Reduction Program (ELRP) will leverage an Olivine app for its residential customers. PG&E's ELRP, administered by Olivine, focuses on aggregating dispatchable load in times of high grid stress and emergencies, and will include C&I customers, program aggregators, Virtual Power Plant (VPP) aggregators, and Vehicle-to-Grid aggregations.

PG&E’s program implementation, which uses Olivine’s ClimateResponseTM technology and services, provides a model for how utilities can rapidly design, launch, and scale efforts to respond to grid emergencies and mitigate current and future impacts of climate change. Join us to learn more about these programs, how they work, and how they are serving diverse communities in Northern California this summer.

Moderated by PLMA Awards Co-Chair Peter Bergeron of CPower
Featuring: Beth Reid, Olivine; plus Wendy Brummer and Albert Chiu of PG&E
