We quantify carbon emissions and savings in Demand Side Response (DSR) programmes, such as Short Term Operating Reserve (STOR) and Triad, substituting grid energy in the UK power networks. We model each of the DSR programmes with configurations and assumptions appropriate for the UK energy industry. This enables us to compare carbon emissions between the business-as-usual (BAU) and the smart intervention applied, thus deriving carbon savings. Standby diesel generators are the main intervention for most of the DSR programmes. Carbon emissions of standby diesel generators are compared with the BAU solution. Whether such a DSR produces carbon savings or not depends on the scale and operational policies of the interventions.
