OpenADR2Please register for our upcoming webinar “Easing Peak Load Stress During System Upgrades” on Tuesday, Dec. 8th, 2015 8:00 AM PT. REGISTER NOW

Distribution system upgrades can be stressful for utilities and customers, where the need for increased safety margins are heightened in order to manage grid reliability. DR programs typically require years to develop and deploy, but in this case, there are but months before the need for DR available load must be available.

During this webinar you will learn how Duke Energy is utilizing OpenADR as an option to rapidly deploy a C&I load curtailment program by June 2016. The strengths of OpenADR’s certified products and vendor community provides this utility with the ability to quickly implement load curtailment programs under such tight timelines.

Speaker: Mark Kerbel is the CTO and co-founder of Encycle (formerly known as REGEN Energy), developers of the Swarm Energy Management platform, primarily deployed for commercial & industrial HVAC load control. Mark is chair of the OpenADR Marketing Working Group, and a longstanding member of the OpenADR community. He is based out of Encycle’s San Marcos, CA office.
