A project is located in an area with a demand-response program and that has enough room for a wind-turbine to allow for on-site renewable energy. If the project implements both of these strategies, which of the following will occur?
A: The project’s energy demands will decrease
B: The project’s renewable energy production will decrease
C: The project’s minimum energy performance will decrease
D: The project’s energy costs will decrease

参考答案: D

本题解释:
D:Demand-response programs usually include financial incentives during demand response events. The utility company asks the building to use less electricity, the building agrees, and the building owner is rewarded with a price break. In turn, the utility company saves money by spending less money on additional transmission lines and power plants.

A: The energy demands remain constant for this project. The wind turbine will offset the need for grid-supplied energy. The demand response participation will curb the building’s energy use during peak times.

B:The renewable energy production doesn’t decrease if the project is also in a demand-response program.

C:The minimum energy performance for the project would remain the same. On-site renewables do not count toward reducing the minimum energy required to run the building.
