Automated Demand Response (ADR)

Automated Demand Response (ADR) is a system where electricity consumers' devices or appliances automatically adjust their energy use in response to signals from the utility or grid operator. During times of high demand or when the grid is stressed, ADR temporarily reduces or shifts power consumption without manual intervention, helping balance the grid, prevent outages, and save costs. It uses smart technology to communicate and control devices efficiently, ensuring reliable energy supply while reducing overall energy consumption.
