Demand-Side ManagementDemand-side management (DSM) programs consist of planning, implementing, and monitoring activities of electric utilities that are designed to encourage consumers to change their level and pattern of electricity usage. Utility DSM programs offer a variety of measures that can reduce energy consumption and consumer energy expenses. Electricity DSM strategies have the goal of maximizing end-use efficiency to avoid or postpone the construction of new generating plants.
