Abstract
As resource mixes in the United States change, a need emerges for techniques like demand response to enhance grid reliability and utilize renewable energy sources more efficiently. Demand response in the industrial sector has lagged behind the residential and commercial sectors but has underutilized potential to benefit the grid. This work surveys U.S. Federal policy from the last twenty years to analyze the mandates and effects on industrial demand response. Policies involving industrial demand response have been vague and abstract when considering the unique energy challenges the industrial sector faces. Future policy concerning demand response should offer specific directives and tools to help industrial facilities and end-users integrate demand response techniques into their processes.

期刊介绍：
The Electricity Journal is the leading journal in electric power policy. The journal deals primarily with fuel diversity and the energy mix needed for optimal energy market performance, and therefore covers the full spectrum of energy, from coal, nuclear, natural gas and oil, to renewable energy sources including hydro, solar, geothermal and wind power. Recently, the journal has been publishing in emerging areas including energy storage, microgrid strategies, dynamic pricing, cyber security, climate change, cap and trade, distributed generation, net metering, transmission and generation market dynamics. The Electricity Journal aims to bring together the most thoughtful and influential thinkers globally from across industry, practitioners, government, policymakers and academia. The Editorial Advisory Board is comprised of electric industry thought leaders who have served as regulators, consultants, litigators, and market advocates. Their collective experience helps ensure that the most relevant and thought-provoking issues are presented to our readers, and helps navigate the emerging shape and design of the electricity/energy industry.
