Peak Demand Response

Award Winner

Irvine Ranch Water District

Irvine Ranch Water DistrictThe Irvine Ranch Water District (IRWD) supplies water to over six cities as well as extended areas of Orange County. Recognizing the high energy requirements of pumping water, IRWD has taken steps to become energy efficient through installations and motor upgrades. By working across multiple zones, IRDW is saving an estimated 4.05 mWh annually and has also installed a 100 kW PV system as well as four solar mixers to reduce peak demand load. Using Ancillary Services/Consumer Powerline and the SCE Base Interruptible Program, IRWD is able to provide the ISO with up to 4,087 kW of demand if needed, with a maximum peak demand savings of 26%.
