What is BC Hydro Peak Saver?
BC Hydro Peak Saver is a Demand response (DR) program. By enrolling your eligible smart home devices in the Peak Saver program you will earn rewards for allowing BC Hydro to remotely manage them during periods of high electricity demand. This helps BC Hydro manage the demand on the system to ensure safe, reliable electricity service across British Columbia.

While DR programs can vary from utility to utility, they usually look like this:

Our 3 Pillars of Demand Response
At Mysa, we're helping to build the future energy grid, and we're doing it by putting homeowners first:
Consent.
Mysa always requires a user's consent before a home and its thermostats are enrolled in a DR program.
Control.
Participants always have control of their thermostats and can opt out or override an event any time.
Comfort.
During any Mysa DR event, you can override changes at any time if you notice a difference in your comfort level. In fact, over 80% of surveyed families said their comfort was not disrupted by DR events.*
