Georgia Power's pilot enhances grid resilience by installing and owning dispatchable grid edge resources (e.g., batteries, generators) at Commercial and Industrial customer sites. Customers sign resiliency service agreements, aggregating ≥1 MW across facilities (≥200 kW each). In return for a monthly service fee, they receive full-value bill credits when grid edge resources are dispatched during grid emergencies or outages. The program defines clear eligibility, compensation terms, and operational rules for islanding and demand response events.
