There's now one month until SECC's 2025 Consumer Symposium, a one-day forum on the present and future of #energy consumers that will be held at DISTRIBUTECH in Dallas! As we put the finishing touches on the agenda, we've recently confirmed speakers from organizations like DNV, Parks Associates, Vistra Corp., Smart Energy Water, Utility 2030 Leadership Collaborative (U2030), BHC Global, Wright-Hennepin Cooperative Electric Association and more. We would also like to thank all of this year’s event sponsors – particularly gold sponsors Oracle and GridX, Inc. – for their generous support of the 2025 Consumer Symposium.

We are excited to share the findings from “Warming Up to Winter Demand Response”, a new survey in the Smart Energy Snapshot Series that explores what consumers think about participating in demand response programs during cold weather months. Fielded to a nationally representative sample of 2,083 consumers in January, the survey found that 79 percent of consumers would likely participate in a program where they voluntarily adjust their heating system for a small financial incentive in the winter. Survey respondents were somewhat less interested in a direct load control (DLC) program (59 percent said they would likely participate); however, 69 percent of Americans with a smart thermostat at home still say that they would likely participate in a DLC program.

Sixty-one percent of consumers who recalled seeing communications from their electricity providers in the past year said that these messages led to a more positive impression of their provider, according to our latest research. Based on a survey of 1,500 Americans, “Modern Energy Messaging: Transactions to Relationships” explored the types of energy messages that consumers are receiving and which messages are most likely to motivate them to act.
