Enrolled participants < 25
Number of DR events 4
Event parameters 3 hour events (2-5pm)
Avg. kW / participant 0.15 kW*
*Under prevailing MA regulation, batteries are prohibited from exporting to the grid, so DR potential was limited to self-consumption, which proved negligible as most customers were meeting load with solar during the event hours.

Energy discharged by battery with self -consumption: 2401 Wh
Energy that could have been discharged by battery with export: 7840 Wh
