Increase Energy Earnings & Savings with Integrated Demand Response
Demand Response programs are providing millions of dollars of value to AICUP members. EnergyConnect by Johnson Controls unique “inform and motivate” approach enables mid- to large-sized electricity users effectively participate in Integrated Demand Response year round. Learn how AICUP members are increasing overall energy earnings and savings via the award-winning GridConnect™ technology platform.
DR programs provide monthly revenue to AICUP member participants for:
- Committing to shed load and curtailing electricity use in a grid emergency situation, or
- Responding to high wholesale electricity prices by curtailing consumption and shifting load.
Flagship web-based offerings on GridConnect are:
- EventConnect™, allowing users to manage and optimize participation in capacity DR programs
- FlexConnect™, delivering actionable intelligence that enables organizations to voluntarily engage and maximize price-responsive demand earnings opportunities in wholesale electricity markets
- ReadyConnect™, making it easy for participants to receive payments for short-duration curtailment at short notice by leveraging ancillary services/synchronous reserve programs
As electricity prices continue to follow a volatile trend, electricity users must explore innovative cost-control strategies to keep energy budgets in check. Facilities directors, sustainability coordinators, and energy managers can positively impact their campus spending in more ways than one. Active participation in integrated DR using EnergyConnect’s SDS approach not only helps members better manage energy use and costs, it also delivers valuable earnings and savings that go directly to the bottom line.
Participating AICUP members also receive the value-added benefit of understanding their electric consumption in the context of their operational constraints. EnergyConnect works with AICUP members on curtailment planning that generate significant revenue to fund additional building efficiency initiatives while complementing campus conservation and sustainability efforts. Members are also kept abreast of DR news & trends such as Pennsylvania Act 129, FERC Order 745, and other incentive programs.
