Abstract
A method of sharing energy usage data may include requesting customer-specific energy usage data (CSEUD). The method further includes receiving a modified CSEUD record. The modified CSEUD record includes modified energy usage data with respect to original energy usage data of an original CSEUD record from which the modified CSEUD record is derived. The method also includes authenticating the modified CSEUD record to verify the integrity of the modified energy usage data.

10. A system comprising:
-
a repository communicatively coupled with a utility, a customer, and a demand response (DR) aggregator, the repository configured to receive an original customer-specific energy usage data (CSEUD) record from the utility and to enable performance of a modification of the original CSEUD record; and the DR aggregator communicatively coupled to the utility, the customer, and the repository, the DR aggregator configured to communicate a DR event associated with a DR program and a CSEUD record request to the customer, to access a modified CSEUD record from the repository, authenticate the modified CSEUD record, and assess compliance of the customer with the DR event based on the modified CSEUD record. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having encoded thereon programming code executable by a processor to perform operations comprising:
-
requesting customer-specific energy usage data (CSEUD) relevant to the DR event; receiving a modified CSEUD record, the modified CSEUD record including modified energy usage data with respect to original energy usage data of an original CSEUD record from which the modified CSEUD record is derived, the modified CSEUD record including sufficient information to allow assessment of compliance with the DR event by the customer; authenticating the modified CSEUD record to verify the integrity of the modified energy usage data; and assessing compliance with the DR event based on the modified CSEUD record. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
