Company Provides Demand Response Services to Restaurants and Retailers
RICHARDSON, TEXAS – Oct. 14, 2014 – EnTouch Controls, a market leader
of energy management as a service (EMaaS) and contributing member of
the OpenADR Alliance, today announced that its EnTouch Controls
EnTouch360° DR is OpenADR 2.0 certified.
According to the OpenADR Alliance, certified systems were first adopted
by utilities in California, but now the technology is quickly spreading
to other regions through the backing of utilities worldwide, including
American Electric Power, Austin Energy, CPS Energy, Duke Energy, EDF
Energy, Hawaii Electric Company, NV Energy, Tokyo Electric Power
Company, and others.
EnTouch360° DR is one of EnTouch’s robust Energy Management as a
Service (EMaaS) offerings. It provides a complete energy management
system with a full-time team of dedicated data analysts to monitor and
adjust the service as necessary and to work with the facilities team to
prioritize alerts and preventative maintenance.
“The EnTouch360° DR is a demand response service uniquely designed for
valued customers who want to leverage our dedicated staff of experts to
take advantage of these often complex DR programs,” said Ifty Hasan,
Chief Technology Officer of EnTouch Controls. “Our service brings the
same simplicity to peak management, allowing restaurant and retail
customers to significantly reduce energy consumption when rates are the
highest resulting in dramatic reductions in energy bills.”
Supports Peak Management Response
EnTouch360° DR also provides assistance with the management of peak
energy demand, which allows restaurants and retailers to voluntarily
reduce their energy usage when rates are the highest to maximize energy
savings without compromising their guest experience.
EnTouch360° DR can implement demand response features on HVAC, lighting
or other selected loads. The system features patented, policy-based
software that allows restaurants and retailers to achieve their maximum
goals with minimum impact on the business. It also provides real-time
metering and verification and can be remotely accessed for pricing,
event and control signaling.
By utilizing advanced group aggregation capabilities, a restaurant or
retailer customer can set DR policies and apply those policies across a
distributed portfolio.
