SYSTEM FOR PROPAGATING MESSAGES FOR PURPOSES OF DEMAND RESPONSE
First Claim
1. A demand response message conveyance arrangement comprising:
- a demand response (DR) communications intermediary mechanism;
a utility/independent service operator (ISO) connectable to the DR communications intermediary mechanism; and
two or more DR resources connectable to the DR communications intermediary mechanism; and
wherein;
one or more singular dispatches are sent by the utility/ISO to the DR communications intermediary mechanism;
each of the one or more singular dispatches are processed by the DR communications intermediary mechanism into two or more dispatches designated for the two or more DR resources, respectively;
two or more telemetries are sent by the two or more DR resources, respectively, to the DR communications intermediary;
the two or more telemetries are processed by the DR communications intermediary mechanism into a singular telemetry; and
the singular telemetry is sent by the DR communications intermediary to the utility/ISO.

Abstract
A system having a utility, a communications intermediary and demand response resources. The utility may be connected to the communications intermediary via a network. The demand response resources may be connected to the communications intermediary via another network. A single dispatch destined for the demand response resources may be sent to the communications intermediary. The dispatch may be disaggregated at the communications intermediary into a multitude of dispatches which may be dispersed to their respective destined demand response resources. The demand response resources may send telemetries to the communications intermediary that aggregates the telemetries into a single telemetry. The single telemetry may be sent to the utility.

6. A method for propagating messages comprising:
-
providing a utility/independent service operator (ISO); conveying one dispatch from the utility/ISO to a demand response (DR) communications intermediary; disaggregating the one dispatch into one or more dispatches; conveying the one or more dispatches to one or more DR resources, respectively; conveying one or more telemetries from the one or more DR resources, respectively, to the DR communications intermediary; aggregating the one or more telemetries into one telemetry at the DR communications intermediary; and conveying the one telemetry to the utility. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A demand response message propagating system comprising:
-
a utility/independent service operator (ISO); a first network connectable to the utility/ISO; and a customer domain connected to the first network; and wherein the customer domain comprises; a communications intermediary connected to the first network and a second network; and one or more demand response (DR) resources connected to the second network. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
