During the 2011 Global Cold Chain Alliance Assembly of Committees in July 2011, the IARW Refrigeration & Energy Committee discussed various refrigeration and energy related topics effecting IARW warehouse members and the public refrigerated warehousing and logistics industry.

One of the issues identified during this discussion was the prevalence of demand response programs being offered by some utility companies. The committee agreed that there would be value in an association-developed resource that facilities could use to evaluate demand response programs.
