Mississauga, Sept. 28, 2017 --
PeaksaverPLUS was activated on September 25th & 26th by the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) to reduce electricity consumption resulting from the extreme record-breaking temperatures in Ontario. Approximately 300,000 residential and small commercial smart thermostats and switches were activated by Rodan Energy to deliver significant reduction in power consumption. Rodan Energy is the program delivery agent for the peaksaverPLUS program that remotely controls participants’ thermostat and air conditioning devices. When activated, these systems deliver approximately 175 MW in electricity demand reduction in the Province of Ontario.
This conservation and demand management program implemented by the IESO and Ontario’s local distribution companies, helps to reduce Ontario’s electricity use at times when consumption is high, as was the case over the past few days.
“The peaksaverPLUS™ program has continually shown its value when called upon during peak events. This is one of the IESO’s green, clean energy resources” said Paul Grod, President of Rodan Energy Solutions. As the Dispatch Administrator of the peaksaverPLUS Program, Rodan Energy Solutions, contributes to the delivery of energy savings for Ontario through residential and commercial Demand Response. Rodan Energy controls and operates devices in several hundred thousand homes and small businesses in cooperation with over 50 utilities and the IESO.
