Refrigerated warehouses in the Northwest have significant demand response potential, due to their relatively large loads and, in some cases, flexibility of load provided by large thermal mass and acceptable range of product temperatures. In June 2019, the RTF reviewed and approved an analysis of this potential, including the stock characteristics, demand response opportunities, demand response mechanisms, savings potential (as a percentage of site load), and implementation costs.
