Load curtailment programs that pay you to reduce usage during peak periods
With High energy intensity and typical usage of 200,000-700,000 kWh/month, hospitality facilities require specialized procurement strategies.
We solve this through demand response programs: matching your variable based on occupancy and season usage to ISO-NE contract structures that absorb the cost instead of passing it through to you.
Our Maine team treats this as a procurement problem, not a utility one — demand response programs structured to your variable based on occupancy and season profile takes it off the table.
This is where a broker earns out. Our ISO-NE supplier relationships let us negotiate demand response programs terms around this exact hospitality constraint.
In the ISO-NE market, our demand response programs work targets this directly — restructuring how your hospitality load is priced rather than just shopping the headline rate.
Your variable based on occupancy and season profile decides where the demand response programs savings live. We map the peaks in your 200,000-700,000 kWh/month usage to ISO-NE pricing windows so the contract we negotiate fits how your hospitality facility actually runs.
Maine is the renewable energy leader with significant hydro and wind resources, and for hospitality facilities that translates into options most owners never act on.

For hospitality facilities in Maine, demand response programs only works when it respects how you actually use power. We map your variable based on occupancy and season profile, isolate the demand and capacity charges that quietly inflate hospitality bills, and structure ISO-NE supply contracts around them.

Because the ISO-NE market settles hospitality load against real-time conditions, timing your demand response programs around seasonal peaks can matter as much as the rate itself.
