Capitalize on Existing Assets with Demand Response

G. Dixon, EnerNOC, Inc., Boston, MA

Our national energy crisis is a competitiveness crisis for energy intensive manufacturers like heat treating facilities: rising electric prices, new environmental challenges, and ongoing business risks of blackouts or brownouts.  Fortunately, in today’s deregulated energy markets, facilities can participate in energy management programs that reduce their exposure to these costs and risks.  Up-to-date energy management practices can help companies compete and thrive on a global level.

In this presentation, EnerNOC will explain the concept of demand response and how heat treating manufacturing facilities can employ new energy monitoring technology to earn new cash flow. The session will include case studies of manufacturing facilities that have incorporated demand response into their business processes and secured tens of thousands of dollars in new cash flow, improved energy productivity, reduced the risk of grid emergencies on facility operations, and protected sensitive equipment. EnerNOC helps 300 manufacturing sites nationwide be lean and green.


Summary: In this presentation, EnerNOC will explain the concept of demand response and how heat treating manufacturing facilities can employ new energy monitoring technology to earn new cash flow.
