SMART GRID
WELCOME TO EVEN MORE SAVINGS
How does Demand Response pay?
The electric grid has limited generation capacity, and runs with a set amount of headroom. Some days however are too taxing on the grid. In addition to the normal demand on the system, a heat wave has everyone turning up the AC. This demands more electricity–potentially beyond the system’s capacity, at which point brown-outs and rolling black-outs occur.

Smart Grid Programs
Broadleaf will help you find the program that best fits your business model. Participating in a smart grid program not only helps you to capture additional revenue, but also on the day of an event, mitigates the use of high-pollutant generation resources such as coal and oil that would otherwise be burned to meet the demand.
