Get Rewarded for Saving Energy
Our Business Demand Response (BDR) program rewards businesses like yours for limiting energy usage on high-demand days. Complete our interest form today to find out how you can earn cash incentives.
How does it work?
When demand for energy is high, like during summer's hottest afternoons, Evergy may call a Business Demand Response (BDR) event.
Participants can decide how much to reduce energy usage, and then Evergy pays businesses for their energy savings.
- We work with you to create a customized plan that suits your unique operational needs.
- You'll be notified of events before they occur.
- At the end of the season, we pay you for the load you reduced!

Examples of how businesses can reduce load
Utilize self-generation where possible. Examples include backup generators or an on-site solar array.
Temporarily shut down non-essential equipment/production lines and perform routine maintenance during downtime.
Pre-cool and reduce cooling loads with small temperature adjustments throughout the day.
Reschedule some shifts from high-demand periods to off-peak times, such as evenings or weekends.
Reduce motor loads where possible in elevators, compressors, conveyors, etc.
Dim lights in non-critical areas or consider dimming outdoor lighting.
