Environmental Law & Policy Center Statement On U.S. Supreme Court Ruling on Demand Response Programs

STATEMENT BY HOWARD A. LEARNER

Executive Director, Environmental Law & Policy Center

“The U.S Supreme Court’s ruling upholding FERC’s ability to use demand response to keep electricity prices affordable opens the door to innovative opportunities to improve reliability and protect the environment.

“As states examine affordable solutions to our climate change problems, demand response stands as a growth opportunity that benefits businesses and residential electricity customers.”
