Fund Your Energy Future With Integrated Demand-Side Management

With intense pressure to reduce energy costs, having control over how we use energy--in a way that earns money--can make a big difference.

EnergyConnect and Johnson Controls have joined forces to provide integrated solutions that combine the power of building automation with easy-to-implement demand response technology. We pay large commercial, industrial, educational and municipal organizations a premium for temporarily cutting down a portion of their energy use via high-return load curtailment strategies.

Using our unique GridConnect 2012 platform, mid- to large-sized consumers of electricity now enjoy even more opportunities to augment their earnings and savings from traditional dispatchable programs with increased participation in flexible price-responsive, ancillary services, and state-mandated programs like Pennsylvania Act 129 opportunities throughout the year. This integrated "inform & motivate" approach gives our customers the visibility and control to better manage energy efficiency and maximize their savings and earnings across multiple facilities.

For example, a forward-thinking college campus accomplished an annual effective energy savings of 25%, a cost reduction of over $112,000. Thanks to their temporary curtailment, 125,186 pounds of CO2 never hit the air.

Everyone Wins
Energy users win by saving plus earning money through smart energy management. The power grid wins for not having to start up temporary power plants during peak periods. The community wins with less threat of rolling blackouts. And the planet wins because of less greenhouse gas emissions.

Demand Response Teamwork

What is Demand Response?


Demand Response in Action:

"Working with EnergyConnect helped us understand our load profile and energy use patterns as related to onsite activities, weather, etc. This enables us to predict voluntary price-based opportunities for effective curtailment with maximum cost savings year round. "
