Demand Response

Demand response refers to temporary changes in electricity usage in response to signals from a grid operator or utility. With the acquisition of industry-leading demand response services and technologies (which include the GridConnect® integrated demand management platform), Johnson Controls enables large commercial, industrial and institutional users of electricity to manage how much energy their facilities consume and when this energy is consumed – a critical feature for connecting smart buildings and facilities to the smart grid.

GridConnect technology provides easy access to energy markets, utility demand response programs and real-time energy information, enabling customers to maximize program earnings, control electricity costs and optimize energy efficiency.
