Webinar Description

A virtual webinar, held over 1 hour.

Energy engineers are under increasing pressure to cut operating costs while maintaining reliable facility performance. This webinar will outline a practical framework for evaluating and deploying load flexibility and demand response strategies that generate new revenue streams without major capital investment. Attendees will learn how to identify flexible loads, assess operational constraints, quantify financial benefits, and integrate demand response into existing control systems. The session also compares manual and automated curtailment approaches, including the use of battery storage for seamless peak shaving. Real‑world case studies will illustrate load characterization, control strategies, and risk mitigation techniques.
