It was unveiled via an official post that Samsung, Seoul Metropolitan Government, and KEPCO have joined hands for a new pilot project. The new project is the ‘Resident Demand Response (DR/Demand Response).’ The official post indicates that the partnership is aimed at providing energy-saving solutions to every household in order to lessen the usage of electricity.
Korea Power Exchange has released a DR. Less energy consumption relies on this DR. as a part of this DR service, every household is required to reduce energy consumption once or twice a week. The household is eligible for an incentive of KRW 1,000 for successful energy savings of 10% or more of average usage during the specified time (per successful reduction).
Seoul Metropolitan Government selects the household that participates in the DR service and grants them incentives upon completion of the standards.
