20 20 Closing Remarks New electricity supply-demand paradigm Increased use of renewable resources Increased demand-side participation Paradigm shift is in power system and energy market operations Variability and unpredictability of Variable Energy Resources (VER) Need for new products (ramping, load following, etc.) Possibility of end-to-end solutions Smart Grid technologies are available for extensive consumer participation p End-to-end incentive-compatible solutions are available (e.g., OATI webdistribute platform) Regulatory issues FERC Orders (719, 745, 1000, 764, etc.) facilitating participation of DR in wholesale markets and scheduling of VER Main issue: Local regulatory barriers
