ClimateResponse vs CommuteStar

Help your business reduce energy costs and earn incentives for supporting grid reliability. The ClimateResponse® App enables customers to participate in utility demand response programs that reward facilities for reducing electricity use during periods of high grid demand. Enroll in programs such as Arizona Public Service (APS) Flex Solutions and High Priority Program, San Diego Gas & Electric’s Emergency Load Reduction Program (ELRP) and Southern California Edison’s Emergency Load Reduction Program (ELRP) to earn incentives while helping maintain a stable and resilient energy grid. When grid demand rises—such as during extreme heat or peak summer conditions—you’ll receive notifications prompting your facility to temporarily reduce electricity usage. Adjusting building systems, shifting processes, or reducing non-critical loads can generate financial rewards while supporting grid reliability. ClimateResponse® gives energy managers and facility operators the tools to monitor usage, respond to demand events, and track program incentives in one place. Key features: 1. Notifications to prompt your facility to temporarily reduce electricity usage. 2. Energy tracking: Monitor your energy usage and visualize your hourly, daily and monthly patterns. 3. Impact reporting: Track the impact on your carbon emissions. 4. Earning reporting: Track program earnings.
