Mastering the Grid: How Multi-Facility Campuses Can Maximize Energy Savings Through Energy Flexibility

Abstract:

With rising energy costs and increasing grid constraints, multi-facility campuses such as universities and corporate campuses must explore enhanced solutions to slash energy costs and unlock new revenue streams.

Effective energy management strategies beyond efficiency—including predictive analytics, peak event forecasting, strategic curtailment, and demand-side management—enable facility and energy managers to reduce operational expenses, participate in demand response programs, and improve overall energy optimization.

This webinar will focus on data-driven energy optimization techniques, including curtailment strategies and energy storage as a tool within a broader demand-side approach. Attendees will gain insights into how to achieve financial benefits through strategic load management and how to strategically leverage peak pricing events—regardless of whether they currently have a battery storage system in place.

Participants will hear from industry experts and facility managers who have successfully implemented strategic curtailment and demand-side optimization to improve financial performance, navigate market incentives, and enhance sustainability efforts. Additionally, attendees will receive Continuing Education Units (CEU) for their participation.

Learning Objectives:

1. Understand how utilities monetize energy flexibility and market opportunities for strategic curtailment, demand-side management, and energy storage across Ontario, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York.
2. Understand different demand-side energy management strategies, tools, and technologies for facilities to leverage energy flexibility and maximize financial savings: demand-response, peak shaving, peak shifting, peak forecasting, and battery storage
3. Evaluate how to optimize facility energy costs through peak forecasting and strategic load management
4. Explore case studies demonstrating how multi-facility campuses successfully reduced peak demand charges to create financial benefits
5. Gain insights into how energy storage contributes to overall grid stability to support grid reliability
