With EnergyConnect's Demand Response, you not only reduce your energy costs, you earn revenue.

Demand Response saves energy, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, provides funds for energy efficiency retrofits and enables you to financially manage your facility through this economic downturn. Choose which Demand Response program works best for you: get paid to standby in case of the power grid nears overload or when wholesale electricity prices are high.

What is Demand Response?

Demand = periods of peaking demand for power or high wholesale electricity prices

Response = large energy users temporarily reduce a portion of electrical load through pre-determined curtailment strategies in exchange for economic, efficient and environmental benefits.

As a large organization, your energy bill can be startling. Electrical rates rise as demand for power outpaces supply. Considered by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) as the "killer app" of the smart grid, Demand Response is available now and provides proven energy management solutions through customized curtailment strategies.

You can have better control of your energy costs and work with the market to stabilize prices. Your local power grid sponsors cash incentives to organizations like yours for participating in Demand Response when they need the community's help to lower demand.

	State Please Select Utility Please Select ? Peak Demand kW ? Curtailment Capability Please Select ? Reduction Capability Please Select ? Close This Window Utility The utility is the company that delivers your electric power. If you are served by a third party provider, please enter the name of the company listed for “distribution” on your electric bill. Curtailment Capability This indicates how much electric demand you can reduce or shift to periods when wholesale electricity prices are lower. Inflexible: You can only reduce or shift small amounts of electric load or can reduce or shift very infrequently. The cost of electricity is very small compared with the value of the product or service you provide. Your electric demand is relatively constant over a 24 hour period. Generally Inflexible: Your electricity demand varies somewhat over a 24 hour period. Electricity costs are important, but not as important as providing reliable service or meeting production schedules. Somewhat Flexible: Your electricity demand varies substantially over a 24 hour period and electricity costs are significant. With the right financial incentives, you would be willing to change production schedules or provide services in a different way when you have advanced notice and can choose when you participate. Flexible: You have made investments in energy control devices that make it easy to control energy use. All you need is the right financial incentive, sufficient notice, and the ability to choose when you participate. You are very sensitive to the price of electricity and can easily change production or service delivery schedules. Peak Demand (kilowatts) Your energy bill will list the maximum consumption for the period. Enter that value here. If it is quoted as megawatts, multiply by 1000 and enter here. If no maximum is quoted, find the kilowatt hour energy consumption for the month, divide by 500 and enter the value here. Reduction Capability Reduction capability is the amount of energy load that can be reduced on the electric grid, through reducing energy consumption, starting standby generation, or a combination of both operations.
