The utility supplier benefits by making more efficient use of generating facilities and transmission systems. This means they can serve more customers with the same equipment, or build smaller facilities to serve the same number of customers.
Consumers benefit by lowered demand charges on their electric bill. They may also benefit by requiring smaller utility Transformers, which they may have to pay for.
