The aim of this poster is to present the classification of stages of development of DSR services in European Union countries, Great Britain, Norway and Switzerland. The discussion is based on information about legal conditions and accessible market mechanisms influencing the current state of DSR resources in the power sector. The provisions of the EU Efficiency Directive defining the existence of reduction resources were used as a basis for comparative analysis. The assessment was made in three criteria, such as availability of DSR services on the energy market, possibility to aggregate reduction resources and requirements related to the technical feasibility of DSR products. Based on the obtained results, Finland, France, Ireland and the United Kingdom were identified as the countries with the highest level of implementation and operation of DSR services, pointing to positive actions that favour the development of reduction resources in contrast to the other analyzed entities. Moreover, this presentation identifies areas which pose real threats and difficulties in each of the considered aspects for new entrants, i.e. aggregators and their aggregated resources.
