And the planet benefits when utilities can avoid building more CO2-emitting power plants and use DSM to compensate for the variabilities in solar- or wind-sourced electricity. Increasing supply is costly — a cost passed on to customers in the form of high rates for peak demand hours — and typically increases CO2 emissions.
