Collaboration Enables Companies to Offer Customers Integrated Auto-DR Solutions

 

NEW YORK, NY–(CRWENEWSWIRE - 03/25/11) - GreenHouse Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB:GRHU) (”GreenHouse”), a leading provider of energy efficiency solutions and sustainable facilities products, today announced a partnership with EnergyConnect, Inc. (OTCBB:ECNG), a forerunner in the development of smart grid demand response services and technologies. Together, the companies will offer customers integrated energy management and automated demand response (Auto-DR) services.

“EnergyConnect has consistently demonstrated top-notch technology innovations and applications, customer service, and uncompromising dedication to excellence in this field,” commented Rob Davis, Vice President for GreenHouse Holdings. “We are excited to be a part of EnergyConnect’s continuing efforts to deliver integrated demand response solutions to its valued customers. This strategic alliance will generate complementary synergies and we anticipate significant rewards for our respective companies and clients.”

Under the terms of the agreement, GreenHouse will offer its Auto-DR services to EnergyConnect’s customers, and EnergyConnect will market its products to Greenhouse’s extensive customer base. This partnership will allow both companies to expand their customer base and offer a comprehensive, integrated demand response solution to existing customers. Customers will benefit from increased energy savings and earnings along with higher consistency in performance.

Auto-DR offers participants the technical means to automatically reduce electricity consumption when signaled by the utility during costly peak energy periods when the demand is highest. This program provides customers with complete control of actual curtailment measures implemented on an event-by-event basis and enables them to realize significant financial benefits.

“California’s investor-owned utilities are at the cutting edge when it comes to promoting Auto-DR,” said Rich Quattrini, Vice President of Marketing and Business Development for EnergyConnect. “GreenHouse provides expertise in turnkey Auto-DR implementations that comply with utility requirements and qualify participants to receive significant incentives for enabling technologies. We believe this partnership will facilitate our customers’ seamless participation in demand response.”

GreenHouse is a qualified service provider of Southern California Edison’s Auto-DR program, providing site assessment, feasibility studies, project development, engineering, and installation of enabling technologies, including complete processing of all utility documents. EnergyConnect’s integrated demand response platform enables participants to earn capacity payments for agreeing to shift or reduce power consumption during times of peak demand.
