Shedding Load During Demand Response Events

• Turn off decorative features, such as fountains, lighting and ambient audio and video displays.
• Pre-cool work areas, then cycle constant air volume heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) units or temporarily re-set static pressure in variable air volume HVAC, turn off ceiling fans and room fans, and raise temperature settings.
• Some facilities with package air conditioning units can do load cycling, temperature reset, and possibly pre-cooling.
• Turn off beverage vending machines and shift use of icemakers before or after an event.
• Conduct meetings during events to minimize use of equipment.
• Charge batteries and battery-operated equipment prior to an event, then unplug battery chargers and use only pre-charged equipment during an event.
• Adjust employee schedules and shifts so that times of increased production or energy use occur before or after planned events.
• Complete dishwashing and housekeeping activities before or after an event.
• Turn off or turn down boilers, pumps, fans and equipment not in use, especially in printing facilities.
• Turn off excess elevator banks and escalators (as permitted).
