How it Works
When you participate, minor adjustments of 1- 3 degrees for less than 2 hours will be made to your smart thermostat. This small adjustment can make a big difference to reduce energy use when the demand for electricity is high, such as during a hot afternoon in the summer or a cold morning in the winter.
You are Always in Control
Once an event is over, your smart thermostat will return to your normal setting. You can opt out of an event at any time by simply adjusting your thermostat.
