Demand Response

Demand response (DR) can be a complex operational issue when considering integrating your lighting with the utility grid structure. Adura Technologies™ taps into demand response for dramatic benefits to control lighting loads during periods of peak demand. Participation in demand response programs sponsored by local utilities reduces peak energy use and the electrical burden on the
smart grid.

Why Adura for Demand Response?

  • Instantly reduce energy consumption by responding to signals from utility companies
  • Our software displays automatically calculated potential reductions and targets load reduction
  • Our software enables you to respond to DR signals to load shed during peak periods
  • Users can pre-configure DR lighting reduction and quickly create DR events to immediately lower power consumption
  • Facility managers can schedule DR responses immediately or for later in the day
  • Your business can qualify for significant payment incentives

Studies demonstrate how Adura Technologies validates energy savings of up to 70% and demand response capabilities with wireless technology and smart devices.
