Blog Post  Receive Financial Compensation for Your Participation in the ENE51 Demand Response Services Program

The Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance (DCAMM) and the Operational Services Division (OSD) are pleased to announce the two-year renewal of ENE51 Demand Response Services Program, effective October 1, 2025.

Demand Response is a temporary reduction or shift in a facility’s electricity use by switching to on-site generators or temporarily turning off non-essential equipment during peak energy demand periods. Participation in the ENE51 Demand Response Program helps the electrical grid manage increased demand for power during critical times, and eligible organizations, including Commonwealth agencies, Massachusetts cities and towns, and public schools, receive financial compensation based on their participation in the Program. 

Help the Commonwealth achieve its net-zero 2050 goal and earn compensation by enrolling your facility in the ENE51 Demand Response Program.
