DESCRIPTION:Building demand flexibility (DF) research has recently gained a
 ttention. To unlock building DF as a predictable grid resource\, we must e
 stablish a quantitative understanding of the resource size\, performance v
 ariability\, and predictability based on large empirical datasets. The ele
 ctrical grid’s geographically diverse and changing nature presents chall
 enges to comparing building DF performance measured under different condit
 ions (i.e.\, benchmarking DF). To address this challenge\, a novel DF benc
 hmarking framework focused on load shedding and shifting is presented\; th
 e foundation is a set of simple\, proven single-event metrics with attribu
 tes describing event conditions. These enable benchmarking and identifying
  trends that represent how these attributes influence DF. To test its feas
 ibility and scalability\, the DF framework was applied to two case studies
  of 11 office buildings and 121 big-box retail buildings with demand respo
 nse participation data. These examples provided a pathway for using both b
 uilding level benchmarking and aggregation to extract insights into buildi
 ng DF about magnitude\, consistency\, and influential factors.\n\nThis web
 inar can draw more attention from energy audience to focus on the grid-int
 eractive efficiency buildings and participate in the SBCS subcommittee and
  associated task forces. The presented work also provides cutting-edge res
 earch outcome for the community.\n\nBuilding demand flexibility (DF) resea
