Automated Demand Response

Utility‑driven load management for cost savings and grid reliability
Automated Demand Response enables WebCTRL® systems to automatically respond to utility demand response events, helping facilities reduce peak energy usage, earn incentives, and support grid stability while maintaining occupant comfort.

Automated Demand Response

The Automated Demand Response (OpenADR®) add-on is a software application that allows a utility supplier to automatically and securely communicate with the Automated Logic WebCTRL® building automation system.

The OpenADR add-on listens for demand curtailment signals from the utility company. These signals are passed to the WebCTRL system, where demand-reduction strategies are applied to the connected HVAC equipment. When participating in automated demand response programs, customers may receive reduced utility rates or utility rebates.
