The Southwest Energy Efficiency Project’s (SWEEP) report provides a summary of the residential and small commercial grid-interactive building demand-side management (DSM) programs at the major utilities in the Southwest, highlighting existing programs in the region that are using grid-interactive buildings (GEBs) as a resource to help with the integration of variable renewable generation and to provide other grid services that create value for customers. The report showcases programs in this region (AZ, CO, NM, NV & UT) that are at the forefront of utilizing GEBs to provide value to the grid.
