Rationale for Existence: The Demand Response Working Group (DRWG) shall develop guidelines
regarding the incorporation of demand response resources into the wholesale markets administered by
MISO. The DRWG will focus on developing recommendations that allow demand response resources to
participate in the markets and encourage increased response from participating resources.
Recommendations will address all demand response resources, including callable and voluntary
resources, from all end users or their agents in the MISO footprint. The DRWG will focus on those
resources that are currently available, and also encourage development of new resources.
