NEW YORK, NY – EnerNOC, Inc., a leading energy management solutions provider specializing in demand response, today announced that it has expanded its presence in the New York region to better serve its New York area customers. This move is in direct response to the company's opportunity to provide power capacity and conservation to the New York City and Long Island areas.
As part of this expansion, EnerNOC - a significant demand response contributor to the NY grid during the peak capacity demand events of July 18th and 19th and August 1st and 2nd - has moved into a new headquarters and increased its sales and operational staff. In 2006 alone, EnerNOC added more than 40 MW's of demand response capacity from over 150 facilities in New York. EnerNOC also won a contract with the New York State Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) to identify and enable 11 MW's of new demand response capacity under its Aggregated Load Reduction Program.
“As a mature market, New York is, in many ways, setting the pace for all of the United States in terms of how demand response can play a key role in managing peak demand and in avoiding blackouts,” said Michael Rigney, director of business development at EnerNOC. “The events of this past summer are a primary example of why energy management strategies play an essential role in securing the future reliability of the grid in New York. Our innovative approach to demand response, which combines cutting-edge technology, broad market experience and an obsession with client satisfaction, makes EnerNOC the ideal provider of a total intelligent energy management solution for this important region.”
During the summer of 2006, EnerNOC was called upon over a dozen times by system operators from California, New York and New England to provide emergency demand response capacity. Using its technology-enabled demand response solution, EnerNOC was able to meet this request by automatically implementing predefined processes with dozens of its commercial and industrial end-user customers to cut back their energy consumption and/or utilize backup power sources.
EnerNOC's industry-leading demand response services have fueled the company's rapid expansion since its inception in 2001. This year alone, EnerNOC successfully managed 39 demand response events throughout New England, New York and California to preempt blackouts and lower wholesale prices. EnerNOC continues to set the gold standard for performance in the industry during these peak demand events by consistently delivering over 100 percent of committed capacity obligations. This performance sets EnerNOC apart from other demand response providers and gives system operators the confidence to depend on EnerNOC when they need capacity the most.
EnerNOC’s New York City office is located at 24 W. 40th St. 16th Floor, New York, NY 10018 and can be reached at 212.624.0000.
