How demand response works
Energy users get paid by grid operators, utilities, to conserve or shift electricity use in response to grid signals. These signals can be triggered by 1) a lack of energy supply (from heat waves, storms, downed power plants, renewable energy variability), 2) high prices, 3) high emissions on the grid, or other reasons.
Voltus connects you to these earnings opportunities, helping make earning simpler and more profitable for your effort.
