Enel X Polska plans to continue to develop its activity in the area of demand-side response (DSR) and sees space to introduce new mechanisms using this type of services, Jacek Miszeuk, president of ISBnews, informed. The company also wants to develop the area of energy consulting and chargers for electric cars in Poland. “It has been five years since we have been developing DSR programs in Poland, and for one and a half years we have been operating under a new mechanism - the capacity market. Within the capacity market, we have managed to multiply the number of DSR customers from approx. 40 to nearly 300, and the portfolio of the offered capacity from approx. 100 MW to nearly 500 MW. We are the largest aggregator on the power market, and thanks to the growing interest of industrial and commercial customers, the volume of the offered capacities will continue to grow in the coming years. This is quite a significant help for the transmission system operator in providing a "parachute" in the event of a power shortage, "Miszeuk said in an interview with ISBnews. He pointed out that for consumers, on the one hand, the price of energy is becoming more and more important, and on the other hand, independence from imported fossil fuels. The best answer to both is energy efficiency on the one hand, and the development of renewable sources on the other. Enel X, present in Poland since 2017, is the global business line of the Enel concern dealing with the development of innovative digital products and solutions where there is the potential to introduce new opportunities related to the use of energy: in cities, homes, industry and electric mobility. Enel X is a leader in global DSR programs, offering a total of more than 7.5 GW of capacity reduction in the Americas, Europe, Asia and Oceania. Source
