Advanced Demand Management
- reduce peak loads through unparalleled circuit-level
measurement and control of customers non-essential loads
- measure and control loads by type (e.g. air
conditioners) either in aggregate or by substation, feeder
or individual customer
Predict Demand for Capacity Planning
- plan capacity requirements by accessing real-time and
historical reports by load type (e.g. air conditioners)
either in aggregate or by substation, feeder or individual
customer
Offer Superior Demand Response Programs
- minimize the impact on customers (i.e. controlling
temperature versus shutting down air conditioners)
- increase enrollment and satisfaction by maintaining a
customer's comfort
Real-time and Scheduled Events
- execute on-demand events in real-time
- schedule events to allow for day-ahead or seasonal
planning
Verification and Detailed Billing
- verify the actual amount of curtailed load by type (e.g.
air conditioners) either in aggregate or by substation,
feeder or individual customer
- integrate with billing systems to automatically credit
individual customers based on actual participation in demand
response programs
Grid Reliability
- target deployments to increase grid reliability by
reducing peak demand in areas where utility facilities are
stressed
New Revenue Stream
- offer customers online energy management services in
exchange for a monthly surcharge

Online Energy
Management
- Visibility
- obtain unparalleled visibility into energy
consumption and costs through circuit-level
management (i.e. how much energy is consumed by
each appliance)
- Control
- create a personal energy profile to
automatically optimize energy usage based on
consumption patterns and utility rates
- Conservation
- reduce carbon footprint by optimizing energy
consumption
- Verification
- obtain easy-to-understand data on energy
consumption, cost savings and conservation
efforts
Detailed Billing
- line item credit based on actual participation in
demand response programs
|
Reduce Emissions and Pollutants
- reduce emissions and pollutants related to generating
electricity from peaking power plants
Conserve Environmental Resources
- reduce the need for additional fuel and land resources
- potentially eliminate or reduce the need for new
transmission lines
