EnerNOC works with commercial, institutional, and industrial businesses and organizations, utilities and grid operators, and regulators and policy makers to meet energy needs with demand response.

Demand response, the voluntary reduction of electric demand in response to grid instability or high wholesale prices, increases grid reliability and helps keep energy prices low by reducing demand instead of adding supply. EnerNOC’s award-winning 24/7/365 Network Operations Center aggregates demand reduction at thousands of end-use customer sites (commercial, institutional, and industrial businesses and organizations) to provide significant and immediate negawatt capacity when high peak demand compromises grid stability. Demand response alleviates grid constraints effectively, economically, efficiently, and environmentally and defers or eliminates the need to build costly peaking power plants. EnerNOC creates the equivalent of a new peaking power plant—with absolutely no incremental carbon emissions—every quarter.

Demand response also enables commercial, institutional, and industrial businesses and organizations to achieve sustainable demand reductions with total energy management. EnerNOC offers a suite of energy management services, including energy analytics, energy procurement, and emissions tracking and trading.

EnerNOC's cornerstone outlines how customers can utilitize demand response to get more from energy.
