Win-win Cost Reduction for you and your Customers

Automated Demand Response is on the rise. And it is no wonder as Auto-DR program costs have proven to be less than 50% that of peak generation resources. As more and more utilities are taking advantage of these programs, they are reducing electrical loads, improving grid reliability and reducing capital investment. Yet not all demand response programs are alike. Careful planning and design combined with exceptional customer service is imperative to achieving high results and satisfied customers.

Global's Automated Demand Response Programs work closely with customers to pre-program their electric load, ensuring their comfort level while allowing reduction strategies that optimize their cost savings and productivity goals. This creates a win-win situation maximizing peak load reduction for the utility while reducing customer energy costs. Global's experienced staff provides:

Development and Assessment

• Implementation Plan Development – technical assistance to identify Auto-DR strategies at no cost to customer

• Process and Impact Evaluation – of pilot programs

Deployment and Operations

• Conduct Auto-DR Opportunity Assessment – technical audits and definition of operational strategies
• Technical Coordination – assist customer during the Auto-DR equipment installation and program operations
• Financial Assistance – for installation and enabling of customized Auto-DR systems incentive – based on reduced electricity demand
• Direct Payment to Customer – for participating in the Auto-DR program – based on reduced electricity demand

Promote and Expand Energy Efficiency and DSM Programs

Comprehensive audits and analyses help utilities promote energy efficiency and customer participation in demand response programs, educating customers on the benefits of efficient energy technology and practices.

Global Energy Partners (GEP) can help PG&E food and beverage manufacturers save energy and secure cash incentives under this third party incentive Program. The Program is designed to help offset the cost of qualifying measures that will save energy and/or improve the process efficiency.

The Program offers focused assessments, on-site assistance and financial incentives to cost-effectively implement the Program's measures including energy-efficient natural gas and electric equipment. These measures address every major gas and electric end-use in food processing facilities and are technically proven, but often under-utilized by the food processing market.

Market Segments:
This Program is available to all food manufacturing and processing facilities in PG&E's service territory including:

• Bakeries
• Fruit and Vegetable Canning
• Dairy Product Manufacturing
• Dried and Dehydrated Food Manufacturing
• Frozen and Specialty Manufacturing
• Beverage Manufacturing
