National Grid Electricity System Operator’s (ESO) Power Responsive campaign is one of the principal stakeholder forums that promotes a more flexible approach to electricity consumption (known as demand side response), which can help to drive decarbonisation, bolster our energy security and create savings for consumers.

The Government will continue to work with ESO, Ofgem and industry to support Power Responsive in its work to remove barriers to increased participation in demand side response.
